The Expert version of the DSA30 Drop Shape Analyzer enables solids and liquids in wetting and coating processes to be analyzed comprehensively. The high degree of automation with easily programmable features provides for user-independent contact angle and surface tension results, which is ideal for the use in quality control. However, the DSA30E is also frequently used in R&D due to its versatility in controlling thermal conditions and its scientific tools for analyzing the solid/liquid contact.
Applications
Quality assurance of activation processes such as plasma treatment, flame treatment, or corona treatment
Analyzing wettability of plastics, glass, ceramics, wood, paper, or metal
Analyzing the effectiveness of hydrophobic coatings and other coatings
Analyzing coating liquids and adhesives and assessing their adhesion
Assessing long-term stability of coatings
Analyzing (super-) hydrophobic and self-cleaning surfaces
Analyzing homogeneity of cleanliness and wettability and measuring differences between coated/uncoated or treated/untreated areas
Wetting analysis at controlled temperature and/or humidity
