Determine the wettability of very small surfaces using standard test liquids – or find out how microdroplets of your individual formulation, for example an inkjet printing ink, wet the sample. The Drop Shape Analyzer – DSA30M Flexible Liquid dispenses picoliter drops of the liquids and determines the contact angle as a relevant measured variable when wetting and coating processes on tiny surfaces are to be optimized.
