Description
Test ink pen blue arcotest® 52 mN/m is a ready-to-use surface energy testing tool for evaluating the wettability of solid substrates in research, quality control and production settings. Calibrated to a surface tension of 52 mN/m, the blue ink formulation provides a clear visual indication of whether a surface reaches the target dyne level required for successful adhesion, printing or coating. Each unit is supplied as a single pen with a net weight of 0,020 kg, allowing precise, portable application of the test fluid directly onto films, plastics, metals and other materials. The pen format from manufacturer Arcotest supports rapid, repeatable checks of corona-, plasma- or flame-treated surfaces and helps operators confirm treatment uniformity before downstream processing. Industrial and laboratory users rely on this method to assess surface cleanliness and activation levels without the need for complex instrumentation. Associated with UN number 3175, the product is intended for professional materials characterisation workflows where consistent surface-tension indication is critical to process reliability and product performance.

Questions about Test ink pen blue, arcotest® 52 mN/m, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
Test ink pen blue, arcotest® 52 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 Produits chimiques.
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 Produits chimiques.
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.
