MFFT

The Rhopoint MFFT is the industry leading instrument for measuring the minimum film forming temperature of water based materials. Definition - “MFFT is the lowest temperature at which a latex, emulsion or adhesive will uniformly coalesce when laid on a substrate as a thin film.” An accurate MFFT value allows the formulation of products that cure correctly under specified application conditions.
The Rhopoint MFFT works by holding a very accurate temperature gradient across a nickel plated copper platen. A flow of dried air across the platen stops condensation forming and gives repeatable test conditions.

Features:

  • Determines the MFFT of latex, emulsions and adhesives
  • Two models- MFFT90 measures between -5º and 90ºC
  • MFFT60 operates between -5º and 60º
  • Designed to conform to ISO 2115 and ASTM 2354


Optional Extras:

The New MFFT re-circulating unit from Rhopoint allows the operation of the Minimum Film Forming Temperature instruments in laboratories that do not have access to a suitable water supply or wish to have the environmentally friendly option of recalculating the cooling water from the instrument. Placed on a desk top or in cupboard underneath the instrument, the recirculation unit is quiet enough to be operated in a working laboratory.
