About Minimum Film Forming Temperature Tester (Mfft Tester)
Minimum Film Forming Temperature Tester (Mfft Tester)
Caltech India Offers Minimum Film Forming Temperature Tester (Mfft Tester). When Emulsion Polymer Is Used To Produce Paint, Adhesive, Chemical Blended Fabric, Surface Treatment Agents For Leather Or Paper, Its Film Forming Property Is Very Important. Apply An Emulsion Polymer Or Emulsion Paint On The Metal Board, When The Water Has Been Evaporated, Polymer Particles Would Form A Continuous And Transparent Film Because Of Interaction Under Suitable Temperature. The Ultimate Temperature Of Critical Film Forming Is Called As Minimum Film Forming Temperature For This Emulsion Polymer, Short For Mfft Temperature.
Advanced Temperature Control for Precise TestingUtilizing both integrated refrigeration and heating systems, the MFFT Tester achieves a controlled temperature environment with high accuracy (0.1C). Its microprocessor-based controller and digital display allow operators to set and monitor the temperature range (0C50C) with ease. This ensures consistent test conditions for reliable results, making it ideal for industries regulating film formation parameters.
Designed for Versatile Industrial ApplicationsEngineered for compliance with ASTM D2354 and ISO 2115, this Minimum Film Forming Temperature Tester is highly suitable for research, quality control, and production environments. It accommodates multiple sample tracks and film thicknesses ranging from 10 to 500 microns, facilitating efficient testing of water-based emulsions, latexes, and polymer films for manufacturers, exporters, and service providers.
Efficient and Durable ConstructionThe unit features a sturdy stainless steel body and a transparent acrylic lid, ensuring durability, visibility, and safety during operation. Its compact design (550 mm x 220 mm x 270 mm), manageable weight (approx. 28 kg), and optional USB data output provide convenience for laboratory and industrial use while maintaining a high standard of performance.
