SURFACE TENSION

DuNOUY TENSIOMETERS
PRECISION DuNOUY TENSIOMETER (upward direction model)
INTERFACIAL DuNOUY TENSIOMETER (dual direction model )
The proven instrument for measuring surface tension - quickly - 15-30 seconds!
Ideal for checking liquids, including oils, detergents, serums, colloidal suspensions,
chemicals and other products. FEATURES
▲ Rapid Measurement
Ring method allows readings to be made in 15-30
seconds. (Ideal for colloidal suspensions which
exhibit rapid changes in surface tension.)
▲ Direct Reading
Circular scale is graduated in dynes/cm eliminating
the need for mathematical calculations.
▲ Reproducible Results
Improved technique allows accurate readings to
be reproduced within ±0.05 dyne/cm.
▲ Portability
Compact unit comes with a carrying case for easy
transport.
▲ Stability
Unit is mounted on a cast tripod support with
convenient leveling screws.

APPLICATIONS OF SURFACE AND INTERFACIAL TENSIONS


Surface and interfacial tension measurements are extremely important
in the control and improvement of:

absorption cataphoresis condensation


emulsification evaporation miscibility
osmotic pressure solubility

Provides precise readings of upward interfacial and surface tensions by the ring method to values
reproducible within ±0.05 dyne/cm.
This instrument is specified for determining interfacial tension of oil against water by the ring method in
ASTM Method D971 and solutions of surface-active agents in ASTM Method D 1331.
It is also specified for testing synthetic rubber lattices in ASTM Method D 1417 and determining the
surface tension of industrial water and industrial wastewater in ASTM Method D 1590. Unit comes
completely assembled with torsion wire, platinum-iridium ring. Includes metal case and instructions.
Ship wt. 27 lbs.
