MSA Expert Course (On-Premise)

Get the best out of your Mobile Surface Analyzer – MSA, optimize your processes, and reduce downtimes. Participate in this hybrid one-day, complete your skills in testing of wetting and surface free energy, and receive the KRÜSS certificate.

The course has been jointly developed by our Application, Technical Support, and Scientific specialists. Upon completion, you will not only be able to perform precise contact angle measurements with your Mobile Surface Analyzer – MSA, but also recognize faulty measurements and avoid possible technical errors. In addition, you will safely handle your instrument and the chemicals used.

Course objectives

• Acquire technical basics for precise contact angle measurement with the MSA
• Calculate and evaluate surface free energy (SFE)
• Identify and correct potential application errors
• Safely handle diiodomethane
• Control surfaces and surface pretreatments (such as plasma or corona treatment, or cleaning)
• Avoid possible technical errors
• Get support and practical advice for your application questions and samples

Our know-how for your applications

Our team of experts brings extensive practical experience from both science and technology and combines the best of both worlds in this event. The course imparts the necessary knowledge from the subject areas of contact angle measurement, surface free energy and pretreatment, and the technical aspects of the measuring instrument. Using various application examples from the participants, you will develop solutions together with our seminar team and expand your skills with current best practices from the industry. With this course and your certificate, you will be even more qualified as a professional tester for wetting and surface energy.

Practical sessions on the way to the certificate

During sessions in small groups, you will apply the knowledge you have acquired with your own instrument and, in this way, develop new approaches to solutions. You will be guided by our specialists in the lab, deal with current problems, and learn how potential handling errors can be easily avoided. The course concludes with the acquisition of a certificate.
