MEASURING SURFACE TENSION - ANALYSING SURFACTANTS
The compact all-round tensiometer measures the dynamic surface tension in three different modes: Single, Auto and Online. This gives it all the functions for a wide range of measuring tasks such as the analysis of wetting behaviour, concentration control or determination of the influence of temperature.
SINGLE-Mode
• Concentration quickly controlled
• Fast and reliable for control tasks
• Measures a value at defined parameters
AUTO-Mode
• Comfortable mode for R&D
• Automated scan of surfactant dynamics
• Characterisation of wetting behaviour
ONLINE-Mode
• Automatic continuous measurement over a period of time
• Continuous process monitoring
• Analysis of temperature influence
SITA tensiometers have been in use for over 25 years for these applications, among others:
•Control of surface tension and surfactant concentration in industrial parts cleaning
•Monitoring of the wetting agent concentration in galvanic coating and etching processes
•Quality inspection of ink-jet inks as well as paints and varnishes
•Measuring surface tension on the line or in the laboratory
•Product development for cleaning, electroplating, inks, paints, etc.
•Analysis of the temperature behaviour of process chemicals
SITA application consulting develops measurement methods and control procedures for individual use in close consultation. This includes free trial measurements, characteristic curves, rental positions and consultations remotely or on site.
