Rotating droplet ultra-low interfacial tension meter TX-500C

The rotating droplet interfacial tension meter is a precision instrument used to measure the interfacial tension between two immiscible liquids, especially suitable for measuring high and ultra-low interfacial tension.

Application field

1. Petroleum industry

In the tertiary oil recovery technology (improving crude oil recovery rate), surface active agent solution is injected into the reservoir to reduce the interfacial tension between oil and water, thereby improving the fluidity of crude oil. The rotating droplet interfacial tension meter is used to evaluate the effectiveness and optimal concentration of different surfactants.

2. Chemical Engineering

Research and optimize processes such as emulsification, foaming, and wetting. Understanding and controlling interfacial tension is one of the key factors in developing new chemical products such as cleaning agents, coatings, adhesives, etc.

3. Cosmetics and Pharmaceutical Industry

In the formulation design stage, this instrument is used to evaluate the stability and performance of new products, such as lotion, creams, sprays, etc., to ensure that the products have good skin affinity or drug release characteristics.

4. Food Science

Used to improve the texture, taste, and stability of food. For example, when producing products containing a mixture of fat, protein, and carbohydrates, understanding the interactions between these components is crucial for maximizing the quality of the final product.

5. Materials Science

Studying how changes in the surface properties of new materials affect their interactions with other substances can help develop new materials with unique functionalities, such as self-cleaning glass and waterproof fabrics.

6. Environmental Science

Monitor the diffusion behavior of pollutants in water bodies and evaluate the effectiveness of purification methods. For example, in the application of using surfactants to remove floating oil on the water surface, accurate measurement of oil-water interfacial tension is required to optimize the treatment plan.
