The BINDER MKFT series environmental simulation chamber for low temperature alternating climate profiles is the specialist for dynamic alternating climate change between -70 °C and 180 °C. Large performance reserves and rapid cooling make the MKFT environmental simulation chamber the high-end product for complex standards-based climate tests.

The BINDER climate chamber with illumination of the KBW series achieves homogeneous light distribution with its natural illumination. That allows this climate chamber to create constant lighting and temperature conditions.

The BD Avantgarde.Line series is specially designed for gentle incubation of organisms, as well as conditioning of heat-sensitive media. The new design of the units and the homogeneous temperature distribution ensure the very best results. Plus, compared to similar incubators, the units from BINDER boast high levels of temperature accuracy, excellent usability, and options for ease of cleaning. The incubator with natural convection guarantees results that are reproducible at any time, with uniform incubation conditions even under high batch throughputs in long-term operation. These incubators are ideal for all incubation processes within the fields of research, production, and quality assurance.

The BINDER incubator of the BF Avantgarde.Line series with forced convection is suitable for all gentle incubation applications, particularly under a full load and large batch throughputs. This incubator is extremely homogeneous and has quick recovery times.This BINDER incubator with forced convection is energy efficient, so is also extremely economical during operation.

Both BINDER vacuum drying chamber models enable effective drying without residue or damaging the material being dried. With their proven technological features, the excellently address the strict requirements of industrial and scientific laboratories.

Samples and similar materials incorporating flammable and non-flammable solvents can be dried, depending on the individual use. The chambers use a unique safety design that, together with accustomed outstanding performance, sets the bar in terms of quality and safety.

Temperature and/or heat sensitive samples can have the moisture or solvent materials removed quickly, effectively, and gently, with homogeneous temperature distribution across the usable space and a drying process free from condensation. On top of all this, high levels of safety are guaranteed with the vacuum drying chambers.

Our range of nitrogen generators consists of 11 different types of devices with varying purity levels up to 99.9995%. These generators are designed to meet industrial and analytical needs, where the production of ultra-pure nitrogen is often required. 

The dynamic contact angle measuring devices and tensiometer of the DCAT series are universal measuring devices for the force-based measurement of interfacial parameters and phenomena.

Surface tension acts to contract and minimise any liquid surface. If a surface is being enlarged by the formation of a liquid lamella, as a test body, such as a Wilhelmy plate or Du Noüy ring, is in contact with it, the surface tension exerts a tensile force that can be measured. Within a tensiometer this force is measured by a high precision weighing system and, hence, the surface tension of the liquid can be calculated.

Using a tensiometer, also the interfacial tension between two liquids can be measured with the help of a test body. Since tensiometry is based on force measurements it is – in contrast to the optical analysis of pendant drops – not necessary that one of the liquids is transparent or that the refractive index differs between the two liquids. Therefore, tensiometry is in many cases a handy alternative to the optical measurement of surface and interfacial tensions.

The optical contact angle measuring and contour analysis systems of the OCA series are high precision optical measuring devices for the measurement of interfacial parameters and phenomena.

The optical analysis of drops that hang from a dosing needle or are placed on a solid surface facilitates the determination of different surface and interfacial parameters. The contact angle that a liquid drop establishes on a solid surface characterises the solid’s wetting behaviour with said liquid.

Having measured the contact angles of multiple test liquids the surface energy of the solid can be determined and the latter can be used to calculate the work of adhesion for different liquids.

The reliable and experimentally robust measurement of the contact angle aids on the development of surface coatings, composite materials, paints and varnishes or cleaning agents. In short: the measurement of contact angle helps in all situations where solids and liquids meet and advantage is to be gained by the control of wetting and adhesion properties.
