Remarks / Special Instructions (if any):

Description : Working principle: When an interface exists between a liquid and a solid, the angle between the surface of the liquid and the outline of the contact surface is described as the contact angle ? (lower case theta). The contact angle (wetting angle) is a measure of the wettability of a solid by a liquid. Wetting describes the degree to which a liquid spreads on a solid when it comes into contact with it. Applications: • Characterization of surface pre-treatment processes Investigation of the adhesion and stability of bonding and coating processes • Testing of the wettability of plastic, glass, ceramic, paper, wood or metal • Quality control for wafers and microelectronics Testing of surface cleanliness • Analyses in accordance with a large number of international standards Specifications: KRUSS DSA 100E Software-controlled x-, y- and z-axes Software-controlled 4-fold dosing unit Expandable for up to eight liquids Software-controlled focus and zoom setting (7-times) measurem
