Attension releases Theta QC, a portable contact angle meter for precise, fast and convenient quality control measurements of surface properties, for instance before and after surface treatment. Theta QC can be used to control the quality of paints, coatings, paper, packaging and semiconductors, to name a few.
Theta QC enables quick and scientific control of surface homogeneity, wettability, adhesion, printability, surface free energy, sorption and cleanliness. It can also be used to characterize liquid interaction with substrates, for instance to study plastic film printability with inks or paint spreading on a given substrate.
Theta QC is the first contact angle meter to be completely wireless, standalone and handheld. This enables optimal freedom in movements and on site location when performing measurement in production lines and workshops. Automatic measurement, single push button operation and highly repeatable technology validate Theta QC as a convenient and reliable solution for at-line quality control.
Maiju Pykönen, Attension Product Manager, Biolin Scientific:
“The challenge was to combine the convenience and precision of the contact angle characterization technique with the need for mobility that customers have when performing at-line measurements. Theta QC was developed to allow measurements without steady electric supply or computer connection, making it ideal in production facilities, warehouses and even for outdoor use.”
