Description
Test ink pen pink, arcotest® 55 mN/m is a ready-to-use laboratory test marker formulated to indicate a defined surface tension of 55 mN/m. The pink ink provides clear visual contrast when a short stroke is applied to a solid substrate, allowing the operator to judge wetting behaviour against this target value. Supplied as one complete pen unit with a weight of 0,051 kg, the product is convenient for bench work and routine surface checks. This arcotest® pen from manufacturer Arcotest offers a practical, portable format for comparative evaluation of surface energy on materials prior to further processing. Observation of how the ink film spreads or retracts gives a rapid qualitative readout relative to the 55 mN/m level. The single-piece pack supports straightforward stock handling and controlled ink delivery for reproducible visual results. Suitable for laboratories and production environments that require a defined dyne-level reference in pen form, this pink 55 mN/m variant can be used alone or together with other arcotest® test ink pens covering adjacent surface-tension steps.
This article belongs on Test inks & surface tension, in Test kits & water analysis.

Questions about Test ink pen pink, arcotest® 55 mN/m, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
Test ink pen pink, 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.
