DataPhysics OCA 50 Contact Angle Device

The OCA 50 is a fully automatic contact angle measuring and drop contour analysis system from DataPhysics Instruments. It is the ideal instrument for the time-saving analysis of the wettability of solid surfaces and the determination of the surface energy of solids.

Features and Benefits:

• Fully automatic: The OCA 50 can perform all contact angle measurements and analyses automatically, from sample positioning and drop dispensing to image capture and analysis.
• High precision: The OCA 50 uses a high-performance 6.5-fold zoom lens and a high-resolution camera to capture precise images of the deposited drops.
• Wide range of applications: The OCA 50 can be used to measure contact angles on a wide range of materials, including metals, polymers, ceramics, and biological samples.
• Easy to use: The OCA 50 is controlled by a user-friendly software that provides a variety of tools for contact angle analysis and reporting.

Applications:

• Surface characterization: The OCA 50 can be used to characterize the wettability and surface energy of solid materials. This information is useful for a variety of applications, including ink and coating adhesion, wetting and spreading, and surface cleaning.
• Material science: The OCA 50 can be used to study the surface properties of new materials, such as superhydrophobic coatings and self-cleaning surfaces, and to develop new surface treatments.
• Quality control: The OCA 50 can be used to ensure that the surface properties of manufactured products meet quality specifications.
• Research: The OCA 50 is a valuable tool for researchers in a variety of fields, including materials science, chemistry, physics, and biology.
