Tensiometry - Force & Optical
Tensiometry is a technique used to measure the surface tension of liquids using an instrument known as a tensiometer. Types of tensiometers include;
- Force tensiometer – measures static surface tension and interfacial tension (the force exerted by the meniscus created when a solid touches a liquid) to determine dynamic contact angle, surface free energy, powder wettability, absorption, cleanliness, surface heterogeneity and density.
- Optical tensiometer – captures the digital image of a liquid drop which is then analysed with a profile fitting method to determine contact angle and surface tension and identify material properties such as wettability, absorption, surface free energy, cleanliness, surface heterogeneity and interfacial rheology.
ATA Scientific supplies contact angle meters, tensiometers and foam analysis systems. These are listed below.
