The PGX + measures contact angle (dynamic and static), surface tension and surface energy.
The PGX + measures contact angle (dynamic and static), surface tension and surface energy.
The device deposits a drop of water of a few µl on the surface depending on what has been requested and then analyzes the shape of the drop at a rate of 80 images per second. For most tests, deionized water is used, however the use of other liquids is also possible.
Characteristics :
Complies with international standards:
Portable instrument
The PGX + is portable and therefore easy to use even in the field. The small instrument is connected to a PC or laptop and is powered by USB.
Static and dynamic contact angle
Almost every 1 hundred seconds (80 frames per second), an image is taken and the device measures the change in contact angle. This thus makes it possible to determine the static or dynamic contact angle.
Surface tension
The shape of the hanging droplet is recorded by the camera. The shape of the droplet gives information about the intermolecular forces.
Surface energy
Surface "free" energy (SFE) is the force available on a solid surface to attract liquid molecules.
Optional : a metering pump to use high viscosity products

Surface tension, interfacial tension, drop-adhesion force and density measurements - the TD5 masters all this, in a very compact and lab space sensitive way.Complies with ASTM D971, ASTM D1331, EN 14210, EN 14370, ISO 6889, ISO 304, ISO 1409, OECD 115 etc.

Controlling the roughness of a boat's hull plays an important economic and ecological role. Composed of a control unit with neck strap as well as a sensor equipped with 3 non-slip wheels and a carbide stylus, the device is moved horizontally on the surface of the vessel and collects a series of measurements.
Device designed to control the quality of concrete and other building materials and its compressive strength. The automatic hammer recoil force displayed on the scale indicates the strength of the concrete.
Adjustable 360 °, these chromed steel mirrors are perfect for coating inspection on large structures and offer an excellent view of hard-to-reach areas thanks to their telescopic handle.

Allows measurement and recording of the profile parameters of a surface using Testex Press-O-Film tape.
Reference: SP5000 /-5005
Kits consisting of a selection of inspection tools and measuring instruments to assess the quality of old or new paint coats and perform measurements during application and before delivery of paint jobs.
Portable porosimeters designed to control the defects or porosity of insulating coatings such as paint, PVC, rubber, enamel on conductive supports (tanks, reservoirs, valves, pipes, concrete, etc.).

Testex Press-O-Film tape reproduces the profile of a surface by molding. The impression made on the tape is then measured with a thickness comparator (measurement of the maximum peak-valley height) or with the PosiTector RTR device (automatic linearization).
The PGX + measures contact angle (dynamic and static), surface tension and surface energy.
