Contact Angle measuring skid

Contact angle measurement system for material characterization

Description

The Contact Angle Measuring Skid is a goniometer system for characterizing membrane surface wettability by measuring the contact angle formed between a liquid droplet and the membrane surface. Contact angle is a fundamental surface property that directly influences membrane performance in applications ranging from water treatment to membrane distillation.

The system includes a precision liquid dispensing mechanism, an optical imaging system, and analysis software that calculates static contact angle from captured droplet images. The instrument can measure both advancing and receding contact angles for dynamic wettability characterization.

Contact angle measurement is essential for evaluating membrane hydrophilicity modifications, assessing anti-fouling surface treatments, characterizing hydrophobic membranes for MD applications, and studying the effects of surface chemistry on membrane-solute interactions. This system provides rapid, quantitative surface characterization for membrane development and quality control.
