Dropometer - Educational
Description
Dropometer Educational is a surface science instrument and curriculum package used for teaching contact angle, surface tension, and wettability concepts in school and university laboratory settings.
The product comprises a portable contact angle and surface tension measurement device accompanied by structured laboratory curricula organised into 4-lab, 8-lab, and 12-lab tracks. Each track provides practical experiments designed for hands-on student use, covering topics within surface science such as droplet behaviour, wettability of materials, and interfacial phenomena.
The instrument is aimed at affordability and accessibility for teaching laboratories that may not have access to research-grade goniometers. Dropometer Educational is supplied by Droplet Lab and is intended for use by science teachers and lecturers delivering chemistry, physics, materials science, and engineering courses at secondary and tertiary levels.
The accompanying curriculum materials provide lesson structures and experiment protocols, allowing the device to be integrated into existing teaching schemes. Typical applications include demonstrating fundamental concepts of surface chemistry, supporting student investigations, and providing measurement data for coursework and laboratory reports.
