The Krüss DSA 100S Drop Shape Analyzer will analyze the shape of a drop of liquid on a surface, or suspended from a needle, in order to calculate the contact angle, or the surface tension, respectively. It is mostly used to determine the contact angle of water as a measure of the hydrophobicity/hydrophility of the sample surface. | The Krüss DSA 100S Drop Shape Analyzer will analyze the shape of a drop of liquid on a surface, or suspended from a needle, in order to calculate the contact angle, or the surface tension, respectively.
