CurinScan Expert allows the monitoring of the curing and drying process. Thanks to the Nanoscale Mobility Analysis (NMA), it identifies the drying & curing mechanisms (evaporation, packing, hardening…) and the characteristic times (Open time, dry-surface, dry through…) of any film-forming coating: Paints, Inks, Adhesives, Varnishes…
The measurement is in-situ, contactless, and works on any type of substrate (glass, metal, paper, wood…) from RT up to 250 °C in a controlled humidity chamber (20% – 80% RH).
