Ez-pi +
A versatile force tensiometer
Kibron EZ-PI Plus was designed and built with reliability and ease of use in mind. EZ-PI Plus is compact size, and easy to move. State-of-the-art sensor technology with excellent resolution, connection for water bath, and intuitive user interface.
Accurate and fast surface and interfacial tension measurements
- A high precision instrument for research
- Surface tension, oil/water interfacial tension, and contact angle measurements
- Measures samples with high viscosity (Wilhelmy technique combined with small diameter probe). Currently tested to 100 000 mPas (Newtonian),
- An easy to use tensiometer for educational purposes, no special training needed
- An ideal instrument for the metal plating industry
- Excellent for oil refineries for the monitoring of sour water
- ASTM D 1331 - 14
Contact angle measurements
- Advancing and receding contact angle
- Wetting measurements of single fibers, for example textile, hair and reinforcement fibers down to 1 µm diameter
- Connects to water bath for temperature control
