Interfacial TensioMeter

The interfacial tension meter determines surface tension values by measuring the interaction forces between a liquid and a gas or another liquid at their interface. It is used to evaluate liquid wettability, foam stability, and emulsification effectiveness, control spreading properties in coatings and inks, and monitor coating uniformity in paper and plastics.

Tensile testing machine for testing the bonding strength of wood plywood.
This article introduces the method for testing the bonding strength of wood plywood using a tensile testing machine. The test involves stretching plywood samples to measure the strength of the adhesive interface, in accordance with national standards such as GB/T 17657-2013.
Surface Tensiometer: Interpreting the Invisible Forces on Liquid Surfaces
Surface tension is the contractile force generated by the uneven forces acting on molecules at the liquid surface, influencing phenomena such as droplet formation and capillarity. Surface tension meters measure this force using techniques like the Wilhelmy plate method, the platinum ring method, or the pendant drop method. Their core components include force sensors, sample stages, and data processing systems.
Surface Tensiometer vs. Contact Angle Goniometer: Which One to Choose for Wetting Studies?
Surface tension meters primarily measure the surface tension of liquids and are suitable for analyzing the properties of liquids themselves, such as purity or the effects of additives. Contact angle meters, on the other hand, evaluate the wettability of solids by analyzing the contour of liquid droplets on solid surfaces, and are commonly used in surface treatment or coating research.
Tips for Cleaning and Maintaining the Platinum Plate/Ring of a Surface Tensiometer
In the field of laboratory testing, the measurement accuracy of a surface tensiometer largely depends on the cleanliness and intact condition of its key components—the platinum plate or platinum ring. This article explains how to maintain them.
How does a surface tensiometer determine the success or failure of printing quality?
Surface tension is a critical factor affecting printing quality, as it determines the wetting and adhesion of ink on materials such as paper and plastic. Accurate measurement and control of the surface tension of relevant liquids using a surface tensiometer are prerequisites for ensuring printing quality.
