Contact angle measuring instrument MSA

surfaceelectronicfor control

A powerful instrument for quality control of pretreated, coated, or cleaned surfaces: The MSA One-Click SFE Mobile Surface Analyzer measures wettability by means of the surface free energy automatically and extremely fast. With just one click, the MSA doses parallel drops of two liquids, followed by the direct analysis of the contact angles and the derived results of the surface free energy. All steps are automated and happen within a second. The result allows well-founded statements about the general wettability by aqueous or organic liquids as well as the adhesion. Thanks to the reliable and pre-defined measuring procedure, user-independent results are guaranteed and errors due to incorrect operation are virtually ruled out. Applications • - Determination of wettability before coating or bonding • - Quality assurance of activation processes such as plasma treatment, flame treatment, or corona treatment • - Quality assurance for the cleaning of surfaces • - Testing the effectiveness of hydrophobic coatings and other coatings • - Measurement on large workpieces and finished products such as car bodies, aircraft parts, or walls
