Drop Shape Analysis System DSA100
简介
很少在高温条件下测量固体的表面能。即使目标是了解熔融物（例如热熔胶）在固体表面扩散或粘附，大多数情况下，固体表面能都假定为常温下测量的数值。我们要指出的是，在金属加工中常见的涂层工艺、染料残留或冲压润滑剂应用中，这种检测方法是有问题的。因此，我们提供了一套“probe liquid set”（with characterization），测量高温固体表面能时，两部分的温度高达200°C。
方法
德国Kruss公司的Drop Shape Analysis System DSA100配合高温样品槽使用，检测镀铬钢和铝箔 is used along with an elevated temperature chamber to measure the surface energies of chrome plated steel and aluminum foil at 40°C and 160°C by the Fowkes method using contact angles obtained by the sessile drop method. For purposes of making such measurements, at atmospheric pressure, high boiling point contact angle probe liquids are necessary and must be previously characterized. We used the Fowkes method to characterize 1- bromonaphthalene and ethylene carbonate
(1,3 dioxlan-2-one) for surface tension with polar and dispersive components at a variety of temperatures. Overall surface tensions were measured using a Kruss Processor Tensiometer K100 and separated into components by testing for contact angle against poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE). The liquids were then put to use at 40°C and 160°C to characterize the chrome plated and aluminum surfaces. Both liquids have boiling points above 240°C.
Experimental []
Based on plate method surface tension measurements with a Processor Tensiometer K100 and sessile drop contact measurements for the liquids on PTFE the following surface energy characterizations were made for the two
Table 1: Surface Tension Data – 1-bromonaphthalene
Table 2: Surface Tension Data – ethylene carbonate
The following contact angles were measured and surface energies determined for the surfaces at the two temperatures of interest.
Table 3: Chrome Plated Steel – Surface Energy Data
Table 4: Aluminum Foil – Surface Energy Data
Results []
The chrome plated steel was of interest for surface energy analysis at high temperature because it forms the die head for a polymer extrusion process, and it was desired to have molten polymer adhesion to it be as low as possible. The aluminum foil sample was of interest for surface energy because it is to be bonded with molten polymer (hot melt) to another polymer film in our customer’s process to make holographic film.
The findings were that the chrome plated steel had very similar surface energy values at 40°C and 160°C. (42.16 mJ/m2 with 45.11% surface polarity at 40°C) (42.02 mJ/m2 with 45.01% surface polarity at 160°C) The foil sample on the other hand, decreased substantially in terms of overall surface energy and surface polarity at 160°C versus at 40°C. (45.31 mJ/m2 with 38.19% surface polarity at 40°C) (38.21 mJ/m2 with 29.64% surface polarity at 160°C) It is sometimes valid to use solid surface energy data at room temperature as a legitimate estimation of the surface energy of the same solid at elevated
temperature (as with the chrome plated steel above). However, other times it is not. In the case of metals this may be due to surface oxidation changes,
rearrangement of a surface coating, or other aspects not necessary completely understood. We have also seen the effect in sputter coated surfaces such as gold, nickel, etc. In the case of polymers passing glass transition temperatures and secondary transition temperatures, well before the melt point, can also change surface energy substantially. These changes may well be important to
the complete understanding of your adhesion and wetting processes. Please feel free to use the probe liquids and data above in your elevated temperature surface energy evaluations, or to contact us if you wish to have such measurements made on your systems.
Summary []
Surface energies of solids are most commonly only measured at room temperature and assumed to be similar at elevated temperatures for most adhesion energy work. However, it is often the case that substantial
differences exist with temperature in the surface energies of real surfaces including metals that may contain surface coatings effected by temperature and polymers. In this note we offer the surface tension components for two surface energy probe liquids 1-bromonaphthalene and ethylene carbonate (1,3 dioxlan-2-one) which can be used, along with sessile drop contact angle measurements to determine the surface energy of solids up to 200°C. The example data are for chrome plated steel (of interest for a die application) and an aluminum foil (of interest for the formation of holographic film). We find the chrome plated steel to have similar surface energy at 40°C and 160°C. The aluminium foil, however, is found to decrease in surface energy by about 7 mJ/m2 and in surface polarity by about 7% over the same temperature range.
