BASIC INFORMATION

  • Make & Model : Dataphysics, OCA 30
  • Department : Chemical Engineering
  • Location : Interfaces and Nanomaterials Lab
  • Category : Category - III
  • Status : Functional

PRINCIPLE:

The OCA 30 operates on the principle of optical contact angle measurement. It uses a high-resolution camera to capture the profile of a liquid droplet on a solid surface. The contact angle is then calculated based on the shape of the droplet.

APPLICATION:

Wetting behavior The OCA 30 is used to measure the static and dynamic contact angles of liquids on solid surfaces. This helps in understanding the wettability, adhesion, and surface energy of materials. It is commonly used in research and development for coatings, adhesives, and surface treatments.
