The new K100 tensiometer from Krüss, a further development of the K12, offers a wide range of measurement methods including surface and interfacial measurements, contact angle, CMC, and more The new K100 tensiometer from Krüss offers an extremely wide range of measuring methods: surface and interfacial tension measurements (plate, ring with corrections according to Harkins and Jordan, Huh and Mason, Zuidema and Waters); contact angle measurements (advancing and retreating angles) CMC measurement; Surface energy determination, dynamic adsorption measurements; and density determination and sedimentation measurements.
On top of all this, the combination of the K100 with the new 'LabDesk' Windows software from Krüss provides maximum flexibility - a new scripting language incorporated in the software means that measuring procedures can easily be adapted to special applications.
The further development of the well-known new design used from the K11 onwards with its spacious and well-illuminated sample chamber allows quick and easy sample changing.
The automatic balance locking protection system also makes changing samples easier while at the same time protecting the high-resolution motionless force measuring system.
The K100 has a precise high-dynamic drive for positioning the sample at speeds from 0.099 to 450mm/min; this greatly accelerates the measuring procedure.
The extremely high measuring accuracy of 0.001 mN/m with a distance resolution of 0.1micrometre makes the K100 into an outstanding tensiometer.
For special applications, a sample holder which is thermostatable up to 130C is provided, along with a built-in stirrer without magnetic field influences on either the sample or the measuring system.
Also included as standard are facilities to work under protective gas and for connecting an automatic dosing system.
