The Global Hengda Contact Angle Measuring Instrument is an important surface analysis tool with wide applications in the fields of materials science and engineering. By measuring the contact angle, we can gain a deeper understanding of the interactions between liquids and solids, providing support for research and applications in related fields.
contact angle
Nanomaterial science and engineering have become a global research hotspot, and when studying surface modification of nanomaterials, the concept of wetting contact angle is often involved. The so-called contact angle refers to the angle formed when a liquid droplet is dropped on a solid horizontal plane, and the gas-liquid interface and solid-liquid interface tangent lines sandwich the liquid phase at the boundary point of the solid liquid gas three-phase on the surface of the solid.
The contact angle measuring instrument is mainly used to measure the contact angle between liquid and solid, that is, the wettability of liquid to solid, and can also measure the contact angle when the external phase is liquid. This instrument can measure the contact angle of various liquids with various materials, such as block materials, fiber materials, textile materials, etc. Powder samples can also be measured after compression. At the same time, this series of instruments can measure and calculate surface/interface tension, droplet shape and size, and surface free energy.
