Hydrophobic coatings are used in many consumers products. Contact angle measurements can be used to study them.
Read about how to setup the data capture of a combined QCM-D and ellipsometry measurement.
Contact angle hysteresis can tell you about the homogeneity of your surface coating.
To characterize model membrane platforms, such as vesicles, monolayers, and bilayers, it is often necessary to use more than one analysis method.
Anti-fogging coatings can be studied with contact angle measurements.
Read about how QSense technology can be used in virus research and how the QCM-D data helps analyze the competition for membrane receptors
Depending on the strength of these forces, the adhesion failure can be either adhesive, cohesive, or substrate failure.
Read about the differences and similarities in information output between QSense QCM-D and standard SPR.
Picoliter dispenser can be used to facilitate contact angle measurements on small areas.
