Searle's Surface Tension Balance
Product Code : EL-EAST-10419
Searle's Surface Tension Balance from Lab Exports measures the surface tension of soap film or any transparent liquid by the deflection of a beam carried on a stretched wire, fitted on a tripod stand with a leveling screw. It offers a torsion-balance approach to surface tension measurement, distinct from capillary-rise methods. Lab Exports manufactures and exports this apparatus from India to schools, colleges and laboratories worldwide.
