Film TensioMeter

The film tension meter calculates surface tension by measuring the contact angle formed by a liquid on the surface of the film. It is used to evaluate film wettability and adhesion, and is applied in quality control for processes such as printing and coating.
Selection
When selecting, consider that the measurement range covers the sample tension values, the accuracy meets process requirements, ease of operation, compatibility with different film materials, and instrument stability aligns with daily testing frequency.
