Surface tension and surface area viscosity measuring device

Abstract

The invention discloses a surface tension and surface area viscosity measuring device. Before gas is introduced into a gas bottle, an open container rises. After a capillary absorbs a proper amount of a liquid sample, the open container descends. Then gas is introduced into the capillary from the gas bottle to form a bubble in the capillary. A camera or video camera is provided to record the forming process of a bubble and the shape images of the bubble so as to measure the radius of the bubble. A differential pressure meter is arranged on the outside of a testing box and is communicated with the gas which is introduced into the capillary, so the differential pressure meter can read the pressure difference between the inner and outer of the bubble. Then the surface pressure can be calculated through the Laplace formula, and thus the calculation of surface tension is greatly simplified. The surface area viscosity can be calculated by the following steps: measuring the surface tension during the unbalance state and balance state, recording the time, calculating the surface area according to the images, and finally substituting the data into a formula to calculate the surface area viscosity. The device has the following advantages that the sample using amount is little, the moisture of the sample is not required, the measuring speed is fast, the precision is high, and the equipment utilization rate is high.

Problems solved by technology

[0008]Limitation of scope of application: the capillary material must be a transparent solid material, such as glass, etc.; the measured liquid does not react with the transparent capillary material; The material of the container in which the liquid is placed does not react;

[0013]Limitation of the scope of use: Harkins and Jordan considered the case where the contact angle is zero when making the correction coefficient table, and the non-zero contact angle will affect the accuracy of the obtained results It cannot be used for the measurement of surface tension in various atmospheres and the measurement of high-pressure surface tension; Zettle-moyer et al. pointed out that this method cannot obtain accurate and repeatable results for surfactant solutions, and the relative error can be as high as 10%.

[0018]Limitation of the scope of use: the liquid must wet the sheet well and keep the contact angle at zero; it is not suitable for the determination of high temperature, high pressure and dark color liquid; it cannot be used for Determination of high pressure surface tension;

[0022] The measurement accuracy of this measurement method mainly has the following factors: the measurement accuracy of the radius of the capillary; The balance of the liquid drop surface will be disturbed, changing the temperature of the liquid surface, and affecting the measurement accuracy; the maximum pressure difference in this method is the difference between the atmospheric pressure and the system pressure, so when the air flow in the room is flowing, it will cause changes in the atmospheric pressure, making the experimental measurement There is a certain error in the obtained data; the smoothness of the end surface of the inserted cap
