The
DCAT 21 is the latest model with new and advanced features representing
now the most sophisticated Dynamic Contact Angle Tensiometer on the
world market today. Besides the excellent software-controlled measurements
of dynamic contact angle, surface free energy, static and dynamic surface/interfacial
tension, liquid density, wetted length, sedimentation study, absorption
kinetics, etc, other options are available for such features as the
Non Magnetic version, the temperature control unit TV xx with a removable
micro-electronic stirrer system, just to name a few. For detailed, please
speak to one of our surface science specialists at FDS (Phone:516-349-0663).

The
DCAT 21 consists of the basic instrument with the following technical
equipment:
- The
contact angle of powders, single fibers and fiber bundles and the
adsorption behavior of liquids on wettable materials according to
the modified washburn method
- The
dynamic contact angle and the surface energy prismatic and cylindrical
samples according to the Wilhelmy method
- The
static surface and interfacial tension of liquids
- the
critical micelle formation concentration of surfactants (CMC) according
to the Wilhelmy plate method
- Lenard
frame method or the Du No? ring method with automatic ring correction
according to Huh & Mason, Zuidema & Waters and Harkins &
Jordan, as well as for fully automated reproducibility measurements
The
DCAT 21 consists of the basic instrument with the following technical
equipment:
