Why is Camera Resolution important in Optical Tensiometry?
An optical tensiometer, also known as a contact angle goniometer, is an instrument used to characterize material surface properties and interactions between liquid and solid phases. In the simplest experiments, the optical tensiometer places a drop of liquid on the surface and records and analyzes the shape of the drop. The tendency of the drop to spread across the surface is a function of the surface tension of the liquid, gravity, the difference in density of the sample liquid and its surrounding medium, and the properties of the solid surface. Optical tensiometers are used in many industries and scientific disciplines to collect a wide variety of surface measurements, including contact angle, roll-off angle, surface free energy, surface tension, and interfacial tension, among others. The contact angle measurement carried out with an optical tensiometer is the most extensively used method to characterize and quantify the wetting properties of a surface.
Which Electron Detector is Right for Your Application?
Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is a technique that employs a focused beam of electrons to scan a surface, point by point, to examine a sample’s surface at high resolution. The interaction of the electron beam with the sample surface results in two different kinds of electrons. Backscattered electrons are high-energy electrons originating from the incident beam of SEM that undergoes elastic scattering with the atomic nuclei of the sample.
8 Reasons to Buy a Commercial Electrospinning or Electrospraying System
Electrospinning and electrospraying are electrohydrodynamic processes wherein a polymer solution is used to fabricate fibers or particles, respectively. In the most basic setup, a polymer solution is loaded into a syringe, and it flows through a capillary tube where a high voltage is applied, and the liquid is ejected towards a collector. Depending on the solution properties, fibers or particles are generated during the process.

What Role Does SEM Play in Trace Evidence Analysis?
Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is a powerful imaging technique where a focused beam of electrons is scanned over the surface of a sample for high-resolution analysis. SEM can offer detailed information regarding the morphology and the elemental composition of the surface. This can prove to be invaluable in the analysis of various types of evidence in forensic science.
