Measuring surface tension and surfactants - SITA tensiometers for the process and the laboratory

Kostenfreie Produktschulung


Inhalt

The dynamic surface tension of a liquid is an important process parameter in many wet chemical processes and represents a decisive quality criteria in product formulations. In order to adjust and control it, SITA bubble pressure tensiometers have been in use worldwide for many years. 

In the online seminar "Measuring surface tension and surfactants - SITA tensiometers for the process and the laboratory", our application experts André Lohse and Tilo Zachmann introduce dynamic surface tension and its measurement, explain the different SITA tensiometers and present their use for many different industrial and laboratory applications, from cleaning and electroplating processes to coatings, paints and adhesives. 

What has to be considered during the measurement? How are samples to be handled? What do the results mean? With the help of illustrative examples, we will explain how parameters are determined in preliminary tests and how the curves and measured values obtained are interpreted. 
And of course we give an insight into the software SITA LabSolution.
