Myths and Mysteries of Measuring Dynes, Surface Free Energy & Contact Angle
Since plasma and flame surface treatment create no visible changes to a surface, methodologies have been developed to measure the changes to a surface after treatment. These diagnostics are quite valuable, but they are often conducted with flawed testing practices and the results are frequently misunderstood.
In this new webinar, experts from Enercon & KRÜSS delve deep into the myths and mysteries of measuring surface energy.
Topics include:
- Similarities & differences of dynes, surface free energy & contact angle
- Best practices for measuring dynes & contact angle
- What your results really mean
- Why relative values trump absolute values
- New automated technologies for testing consistency
- An all-new method for measuring recently receded contact angle
Plus, we’ll answer the age-old question: Can you achieve a dyne level greater than 72? (And, if you could, would it matter?)
Access to the webinar includes both the recorded presentation and the presentation slides.
