| Evaluate the influence of surface roughness on wettability
Recorded webinar Many surface modification and coating technologies that are used for optimizing wetting and adhesion properties influence both surface chemistry and roughness. Understanding the mechanisms that impact wetting by separating these two factors can be a useful tool in product development processes and in quality control. Watch this recorded webinar to learn more about the method. Speaker: Principal Application Specialist Matthew Dixon |

Complex fluid/fluid systems can be characterized with interfacial rheology
Complex fluid/fluid systems, such as emulsions, gels and various surfactant solutions, are the basis of most of our everyday consumer products from detergents to healthcare, but also found in biology and industrial processes such as in enhanced oil recovery and mineral processing.
Evaluate the influence of surface roughness on wettability
While contact angle (CA) goniometry involving placing a drop of liquid on a surface and measuring the resulting angle has been around for many years, we have only recently developed a system to account for the underlying surface’s micro-scale roughness.
Wettability analysis for inkjet printing
Surface tension of inkjet inks and the wettability of the printing substrate are important factors influencing the final printing quality and process reliability. Surface tension and interfacial interactions can be explored with various technologies.
