Dyne Test Pens Kit (30-52) Dyne solutions may work well in the lab, but in the shop a more robust device is indicated. This suggests “dyne pens” for online testing. Several types are readily available.
Generally, these markers are interpreted based on which dyne level takes closest to two seconds to form beads (similar to the standard ASTM and TAPPI methods). These test markers are easy to use and, when first used, often quite accurate.
Unfortunately, their “Magic Marker” style nibs serve as perfect conduits for contamination of almost any kind, including machine oils, airborn lubricants, plasticizers, slip additives, etc. The very wicking qualities — graphically depicted below — which facilitate their use make them self-contaminating as well. This dynamic interaction between the instrument and the substrate essentially eliminates such wicking style applicators for serious dyne testing.
Thus, the Marker Pen, which is based on a valve tip applicator. The principle is simple: Keep the testing part of the pen away from the fluid storage part of the pen (in other words, no wicking from the substrate). The diagram (right) demonstrates how that’s accomplished; by pressing the tip firmly down, the valve is opened and fresh fluid floods the tip; this flushes it clean, and allows the tester to lightly pass over the sample to accurately determine dyne level. Results are based on how long the test solution takes to form beads on the sample surface.
Dyne pens are a quick and easy way to test the surface energy of materials. Learn more about dyne pens and how to use them for online testing.”
A Dyne Test Pens Kit is a tool used to measure the surface energy of a material. Each pencil contains a liquid mixture, which usually contains water, alcohol and a surfactant. It is applied to a surface with a pen-like applicator. The level of wetting or dispersion of the liquid on the surface is used to determine the surface energy, measured in dynes per centimeter (dynes/cm).
The surface energy of a material is an important property that affects its adhesion and bonding characteristics. Higher surface energy generally indicates better wettability and adhesion properties. Dyne test pens are commonly used in the printing, packaging, and plastics industries to measure the surface energy of materials such as films, coatings, and adhesives. They are also used to test the effectiveness of corona or plasma treatments on surfaces.
The Dyne Test Pens Kit (30-52) Our Kit include special liquid mixtures that allow accurate assessment of the adherence level of a liquid on a plastic surface.
These pens are mainly used in laboratories to measure the effects of corona treatment, and they offer a practical alternative to liquid mixtures.
Operators handling production lines use them to check if a material has undergone treatment.
It’s important to note that these pens have a shelf life of six months and should be stored in a cool place.
Kolorguide provides high-quality dyne test pens and inks for the film, extrusion, and web converting industries, among others.
The kit comprises 12 standard dyne levels formulated from 100% reagent-grade materials. These levels range from 30 through 52 dynes/cm, making it a versatile and reliable tool for professionals.
Dyne Test Pens Kit include
pens 30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 46, 48, 50 and 52 dynes/cm
