Product Description:
Qualtech Products Industry professional MFFT Bar is an advanced Minimum Film Forming Temperature Bar with a user-friendly Color Touchscreen Display to professionally determine:
- the Minimum Film Forming Temperature of paint, coatings, synthetic latex, emulsions, polymers, adhesives and related sample materials
- the Transition Temperature of liquid samples including melted glass, dispersion materials, enamel, synthetic resins and related samples
- the Stacking Capability and the Blocking Power of samples including coated papers, prints and foils
This professional Minimum Film Forming Temperature Bar is designed and engineered offering the newest microchip technology combined with a large Color Touchscreen Display, user-friendly programming, 16 high-precision Temperature Sensors and 16 Temperature Points, an advanced Test Platen made of Copper to offer an increased level of heat conductivity, real-time sample monitoring, an advanced Heating System, an advanced Cooling System, Continuous Temperature Readings across the Sample Platen, automatic heating & cooling, user-friendly application, user-friendly sample handling, user-friendly cleaning, integrated safety features, ergonomic design, reliable performance, longevity and much more.
This professional Automatic MFFT Bar with Touchscreen Display is designed and engineered in accordance with international test standards including:
- ASTM D2354 (Standard Test Method for Minimum Film Formation Temperature (MFFT) of Emulsion Vehicles)
- ASTM D7306 (Standard Practice for Testing Low Temperature Film-Formation of Latex Paints by Visual Observation)
- ISO 2115 (Plastics — Polymer dispersions — Determination of white point temperature and minimum film-forming temperature)
- ISO 4622 (Paints and varnishes — Pressure test for stackability)
- DIN 53366 (Testing of Plastic Films and sheeting – Determination of Blocking Strength)
- DIN 53787 (Testing Of Polymer And Copolymer Aqueous Dispersions; Determination Of The Minimum Temperature Of Film Formation And The White Point Temperature)
Paint and Coatings:
The Minimum Film Forming Temperature of paint and coatings is the lowest temperature at which the sample uniformly coalesces when applied on a substrate as a thin film.
The standard test to professionally determine the Minimum Film Forming Temperature of paint and coatings suggests using a Minimum Film Forming Temperature Bar as specified in recognized international test standards.
Adhesives:
The Minimum Film Forming Temperature of One-Pack Epoxy Adhesives is measured by applying the same test method as suggested for paint and coatings.
When testing Two-Pack Epoxy Adhesives a small piece of Aluminum Foil is placed on the Sample Platen prior the application of the sample to facilitate a user-friendly cleaning after the sample test when removing the sample.
Two-Pack Epoxy Adhesives don't indicate a Minimum Film Forming Temperature, however, the Minimum Cure Temperature can be determined by scraping the sample with a PVC Spatula.
