Contact Angle Measuring Device used to Accurately Quantify the Wetting Behavior of Liquids on Solid Surfaces
Contact Angle Measuring Device
A·Summary
The Contact angle refers to the Angle between the solid-liquid interface and the gas-liquid interface from the inside of the liquid at the junction of the solid, liquid and gas three phases. Contact Angle measurement technology can not only be used to characterize the surface properties of common materials, but also has important applications in the petroleum industry, flotation industry, pharmaceutical materials, chip industry, low surface energy non-toxic anti-fouling materials, ink, cosmetics, pesticides, printing and dyeing, paper making, fabric finishing, detergent, spraying, sewage and other fields.
Contact Angle measuring instrument is widely used in various industries, in mobile phone manufacturing, glass manufacturing, surface treatment, material research, chemical industry, semiconductor manufacturing, paint ink, electronic circuit, textile fiber, medical biology and other fields, contact Angle measurement has become an important instrument to evaluate surface properties.
B·Application
The contact Angle measuring instrument adopts the principle of optical imaging, and measures the contact Angle, wettability energy, surface interface tension, surface energy, tilt Angle and other properties of the sample surface through image profile analysis. At present, it has been widely used in many colleges and universities and enterprises.
1. The wetting behavior of the liquid on the solid surface such as spreading, penetration and absorption, and the static contact Angle is measured by the seat drop method;
2. Dynamic contact Angle measurement of material on solid surface, real-time automatic fitting;
3. Continuous real-time research and process recording of absorbing materials, and curve analysis of contact Angle changes with time;
4 Contact Angle measurement of various special materials, curved concave and convex surfaces, super hydrophobic/super hydrophilic samples;
5. Suspension drop method is used to measure the interfacial tension of various liquid surfaces and its polarity and dispersion components;
6. (Surface free energy)
7. Adhersion,spreading coefficient,Evaluate solid surface uniformity, cleanliness, etc.
C· Principle
The contact Angle measuring instrument mainly consists of six parts: main machine, light source, injection drip system, sample table, imaging acquisition system and analysis software. The equipment adopts the principle of optical imaging.
1. The host adopts high-strength national standard aluminum alloy structure, with modular design concept, self-developed integrated chip circuit control, adopts the essence and configuration of imported contact Angle equipment, and the whole machine is simple and convenient to use without subsequent calibration, and the whole machine is stable and durable.
2.The light source adopts industrial-grade blue adjustable LED cold light source (life above 50000H), the light is uniform and stable, and the liquid volatilization caused by extra heat can be avoided.
3.The high precision electric control unit of the injection dropping system, with software control, the dropping accuracy can reach 0.1uL. 500uL dedicated quartz microfeeder, durable and free from liquid corrosion.
4.The sample table adopts a three-dimensional mobile platform, which can achieve 0.1mm high precision up and down, left and right front and back movement control.
5.The camera of the imaging acquisition system adopts Daheng image 1280*1024 professional CMOS digital camera, the frame rate can reach 30fps, the shooting is stable, the image is clear and true. Lens adopts 0.6-4.5 times HD industrial continuous magnification microscope, imaging without deformity and distortion.
6. Includes video playback, data saving and report export functions
