Key Benefits

3 reasons to invest

Full CMC automation for high precision

Everything from measuring surface tension and changing surfactant solution concentration to analyzing the shape of the CMC curve automatically ensures a user-independent and unattended operation. Integrated magnetic stirrer ensures surfactant solution homogeneity.

Sophisticated software

The OneAttension software provides full versatility and automation, easy measurement setup, and live results. But above all, it is really user-friendly and intuitive. Includes features like autosearch to reduce CMC measurement time by automatically increasing the number of data points only around the CMC point.

Optimized yet versatile

Sigma CMC is an adaptable and versatile system that not only measures CMC but also has the full support of other surface measurement modes from surface tension to powder wettability. This ensures the system is future-proof for any measurement needs that may come to you.
