KSV Minimicro System 2
- Miniature Langmuir-Blodgett Instrument
PC-controlled Langmuir-Blodgett trough for fully automatic deposition of Langmuir-Blodgett films on solid substrates. Also performs the same measurements as Minimicro System 1.
Configuration includes
- The KSV MiniMicro Control Module
- Barrier drive
- Film balance
- Dipper
- Dipping trough
Unique Features
- A Dipping well in the centre of the trough
- Injection port to inject the solution to the subphase
Common features
- Symmetric compression of the monolayer by two inter-linked surface barriers
- Leak proof hydrophilic Delrin barriers
- Form-sintered single-piece, non-porous PTFE trough, surface area 100 cm2,(L195 x W51 x D4)
- Subphase
temperature control facilitated by aluminum heating/cooling base-plate
controlled by external circulating water bath (bath sold separately)
- Super-sensitive
film balance with platinum Wilhelmy plate (51066), 100 paper plates
(51066FP) and hook for the paper plates (51066FPH)
- Digital display of surface pressure
- Complete KSV WINLB software for Windows operating systems
- Comprehensive instruction manual and instructional video CD on how to set up the instrument and make basic measurements
- Complete starter kit to make initial measurements (see accessory KSV-LBKIT)
