Description
Test ink pen blue, arcotest® 55 mN/m is a ready-to-use surface-energy test pen for rapid assessment of wetting behaviour on solid surfaces. Formulated to a defined surface tension of 55 mN/m, the blue test ink allows laboratory and production teams to check whether a substrate meets a target dyne level before coating, printing, bonding or other surface treatments. A continuous film indicates adequate wettability at or above the stated value, while contraction or beading signals that the surface energy lies below 55 mN/m. Supplied as a single pen weighing 0,020 kg, the unit is convenient for routine quality checks, incoming-goods inspection and process monitoring. The arcotest® blue test ink format from manufacturer Arcotest combines controlled ink delivery with clear visual readout, supporting consistent evaluation across plastics, films, metals and other industrial materials. Classification includes UN number 3175. Ideal for materials science, packaging and surface-preparation workflows that require a practical, standardised dyne-level check without complex instrumentation.
This article is part of Test inks & surface tension, in Test kits & water analysis.

Questions about Test ink pen blue, arcotest® 55 mN/m, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
Test ink pen blue, arcotest® 55 mN/m, 1 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Arcotest for laboratory use. It sits in Test inks & surface tension, inside Test kits & water analysis, in Lab chemicals.
A test ink checks the surface energy of a solid: the ink either wets the surface or crawls back. The stated dyne value is the product. It is a surface-treatment check, used on plastics and films, not an assay of a liquid concentration.
A test kit turns a chemical question into a colour, a titre or a reading on a strip, so the operator does not have to assemble the method from separate reagents. A cuvette test is a ready optical cell. A strip is a field reading. The range printed on the kit is the range where the answer means something. Outside it, the kit is silent or wrong. The substances inside are on PubChem. Water measurement traces to NIST.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Test kits & water analysis. The sub-category is Test inks & surface tension. The catalogue is Lab chemicals.
Shelves beside this one are Cuvette tests (Nanocolor), Colorimetric test kits and Test strips & indicator papers.
What should I check before I order?
The technical information on this page is the manufacturer's sheet. Read that, not a rewritten specification.
When this page shows a safety data sheet, use that manufacturer file. Hazard text does not belong in the sales description. For a pack size, a grade or a certificate that is not on the page, send a quote request or contact the team.
