The Next Generation Interfacial Shear Rheometer

Interfacial shear rheology at the gas-liquid or liquid-liquid interface is important in a wide range of applications where foams and emulsions are used. The interface stability is controlled by surface-active molecules which can be surfactants, proteins, lipids and other particles.

The ISR Flip, NEW Interfacial shear rheometer from KSV NIMA, is ideal for the study of viscoelastic properties of thin films which can be linked to surface stability. The instrument allows for highly sensitive interfacial rheology measurement both at the air-liquid and liquid-liquid interfaces. The system uses a lightweight magnetised probe positioned in the air-liquid or liquid-liquid interface which oscillates. A high-resolution camera records its movement that allows the viscoelastic properties of films are calculated.  The camera can also be flipped for increased versatility.

This article discusses the new ISR Flip which can be equipped low volume cell and high compression trough to enable measurements to be done as a function of the surface pressure of the monolayer. The window makes measurement with transmitted light possible.
