Rhopoint offers a comprehensive range of solutions for the coatings industry, encompassing instruments for coating properties, viscosity measurement, and calibration tools.
These instruments help ensure that paints and coatings meet specifications by measuring key characteristics that influence their quality, performance, and ease of application.
- Rhopoint Paintlab MFFT: This instrument determines the minimum film forming temperature (MFFT) of paints and coatings. MFFT is the lowest temperature at which a paint or coating can form a continuous film. Paints and coatings with a higher MFFT may be difficult to apply in cold weather conditions.
- Viscosity Flow Cups: These are simple and commonly used tools for measuring the viscosity of liquids, including paints and coatings. Viscosity is a measure of a liquid’s resistance to flow. Higher viscosity paints will be thicker and more difficult to pour or brush.
- Calibration Oil: Calibration oils are used to ensure the accuracy of viscometers. These oils come in various certified viscosity levels and are traceable to national standards. Regularly calibrating viscometers with Rhopoint calibration oil helps to ensure that viscosity measurements are accurate and reliable.
By using these Rhopoint instruments, manufacturers can gain valuable insights into the quality, performance, and application characteristics of their paints and coatings. This can help to improve product quality, consistency, and efficiency in the coatings production process.
