The Model 100P
is an portable model with the
compact hand-held designs for
budget-priced starting into
the contact angle measuring
technique and drop shape analysis,
for the software-controlled
measurement and analysis of
:
The static and dynamic contact
angle according to the Sessile
and Captive Drop method as
well as
the
analysis of the drop shape
according to the Pendant Drop
method
The wetting behavior on solid
surfaces
The surface free energy of
solids and their components
The Model 100P consists of
the basic hardware with the
following technical features:
Basic platform with needle
holder and syringe support
Homogeneous LED back lighting
electronics with continuously
adjustable intensity
Measuring stage , adjustable
in three axis for the accurate
sample positioning
Adjustable tilt optics
Fixed lens with optional high-performance
lens with an integrated continuous
fine focus
High resolution 1280 x 1024
USB 2.0 camera
Manual dosing unit with fine
1.0 ul adjustable syringe
Integral X-Y-Z fine adjustable
needle holder
The Model 100P Software developed
for Windows NT/2000/XP offers
by various expansion steps:
1. Static and dynamic contact
angle measurement according
to the Sessile and Captive
Drop method
2. Sessile Drop method using
4 different fitting algorithms
: Laplace-Young Fitting, Circle
Fitting, Conic Fitting, Polynomial
Fitting (Tangent Fitting)
3. Auto baseline detection with
manual curved-surface baseline
function
4. Movie video recording or computation
functions with rate of 15
-60 fps for dynamic study
like absorption, spreading,
reaction kinetics, software
trigger function with recording
and playing speed, time settings
etc.
5. Gauge ball, needle or known
liquids calibration function
6. Result Data Center for storing,
managing, analyzing and exporting
measuring data by user-defined
tasks or drops basis, computation
results with display items
settings and graph view
7. Surface free energy computation
with methods Wu, Zisman plot,
Owens-Wendt, Fowkes, Extended
Fowkes, Acid-Base, Equation
of State etc. using chemical
substances and test samples
database
8. Wetting behavior analyzer
for building wetting envelopes
on all SFE methods
