At Orbit Research Associates, we provide specialized analytical services in Surface and Interfacial Tension as well as Critical Micelle Concentration (CMC), helping industries optimize formulations, enhance performance, and innovate with confidence.
Our measurements are carried out using advanced instrumentation from KRÜSS, a global leader in interfacial science. We offer multiple techniques to suit different application needs:
🔹 Pendant Drop Method (DSA100 - Drop Shape Analyzer)
This optical technique involves analyzing the shape of a droplet suspended from a needle to determine surface or interfacial tension. The curvature of the droplet is related to the balance between gravity and surface forces, providing highly accurate results—ideal for dynamic studies and small sample volumes.
🔹 Wilhelmy Plate and Du Noüy Ring Methods (K20 - Force Tensiometer)
These classical force-based methods involve immersing a thin plate (Wilhelmy) or a platinum ring (Du Noüy) into a liquid and measuring the force required to detach it. These techniques are particularly suited for measuring static surface tension with high reproducibility and are widely used in quality control and formulation studies.
🔹 Critical Micelle Concentration (CMC)
CMC analysis reveals the concentration at which surfactant molecules begin to form micelles, a key factor in formulating detergents, emulsifiers, and dispersants. Knowing the CMC helps in optimizing surfactant efficiency and cost-effectiveness in formulations.
Our data-driven approach ensures that you receive accurate, application-specific insights—whether you're developing paints, coatings, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, or petrochemical products.
💡 With Orbit Research, you're not just getting measurements—you’re getting scientific clarity that helps you make smarter decisions and elevate your product performance.
Partner with us to harness the power of surface science for innovation and success.
