Product Accessories

The Theta Flow supports several plug-and-play modules for highly specialized applications, including:

The unique 3D Topography module takes wettability and adhesion analysis to a completely new level by measuring both contact angle and surface roughness of the sample in a single measurement.

The High Pressure Chamber is designed for wettability research within enhanced oil recovery and enables measurements at pressures up to 400 bars and temperatures up to 200°C.

A software controlled tilting cradle. Used for studying dynamic contact angles. Tilting range from 0 to 90° and tilting resolution 0.1°.

Software controlled drop size pulsing for interfacial rheology measurement of viscoelastic properties of interfacial layers at liquid-air or liquid-liquid interfaces.

Utilize automated picoliter-scale drop formation. Especially useful for inkjet applications and for measuring contact angle on very small sample areas.
