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

Dust present on stripped surfaces can reduce the adhesion of the coating, causing premature wear and non-conformities by against application specifications. The dust analysis kit is used to assess the quantity and size of dust particles on surfaces prepared for painting.
This precision moisture meter enables the detection of relative humidity in concrete, cement, sand and other building materials. The water in the sample reacts with the calcium carbide, producing an increase in pressure in the cell proportional to the residual moisture content.
Assesses the quantity and size of dust particles on blast cleaned surfaces in accordance with ISO 8502-3.

Simple test to measure the degree of water penetration in building materials such as concrete, stone and plaster. A glass tube filled with water is bound to the sample by plastilin. Water pressure is then exerted on the surface. A graduated scale indicates the amount of water that enters the surface over time.
