Who we are

Scientific expertise and precision instrumentation for understanding surfaces and interfaces.

SINTERFACE Technologies develops and manufactures scientific instruments for the investigation of surface and interfacial phenomena. Our measurement systems bring together scientific methodology, precision engineering and decades of experience in interface science.

Scientific Foundation

Built on decades of interface science.

SINTERFACE has grown from the close relationship between fundamental interface research and the development of experimental measurement methods.

Surface and interfacial tension, adsorption processes, interfacial rheology, wetting and thin liquid films form part of the scientific background that continues to shape the development of our instrumentation.

Interface Science

Scientific methods as the basis of measurement technology

Measurement technology is not only hardware. It is part of the experimental method.

Areas of Expertise

Measuring the phenomena that define interfaces.

SINTERFACE measurement systems are developed around the physical processes that govern surfaces and liquid interfaces — from equilibrium and dynamic tension to interfacial deformation, wetting and thin-film behavior.

Surface & Interfacial Tension

Quantitative characterization of equilibrium and dynamic surface and interfacial tension across liquid-gas and liquid-liquid systems.

Interfacial Rheology

Investigation of the mechanical response of interfacial layers, including dilational and shear properties.

Wetting & Contact Angle

Characterization of wetting behavior, contact angles and the interaction between liquids and solid surfaces.

Thin Liquid Films

Experimental investigation of film formation, thinning, stability, rupture and interactions within free-standing liquid films.

Research & Industry

From scientific research to practical application.

SINTERFACE instruments are used to investigate interfacial phenomena in fundamental research as well as in the development, characterization and optimization of materials, formulations and processes.
