Contact Angle & Surface TensionMetals

Dynamic High-Temperature Contact Angle Analyzer

The GFT-1600 monitors wetting and contact-angle changes as metals, inorganic compounds, and mixtures are heated through sintering, softening, melting, and liquefaction. It uses transmission projection, computer image acquisition, and controlled heating from room temperature to 1,700 °C.

Contact Angle & Surface Tension

Product Description

A specimen is heated and melted before contacting a substrate in a vacuum or protective-atmosphere environment. The system records images and temperature or height data for analysis of surface tension, wetting angle, and dynamic contact angle.

The configuration includes a molybdenum-rhodium wire furnace, B-type thermocouple, CCD imaging, manual or programmed control, and a vacuum high-temperature heating chamber.
