A Cassel t y p e tensiometer capable measuring t h e surface tension of liquids over a wide t e m p e r a t u r e range is being produced by N a t i o n a l I n s t r u m e n t Labora tories, I n c . Sam ple requirement for t h e i n s t r u m e n t is only 0.02 ml. Closed chamber construction per mits surface ten sion t o be meas ured in a n v desired
T h e i n s t r u m e n t operates b y measuring the m a x i m u m pressure a t t a i n a b l e inside a small bubble. T h e bubble is formed over an orifice, so t h a t no corrections for hydrostatic head of liquid need be a p plied. Components of t h e tensiometer in clude t h e small orifice on which t h e bubble forms, a piston for applying gas pressure inside t h e forming bubble, and a m a n o m e t e r for measuring t h e gas pres sure. T h e sample a n d orifice a r e situ ated inside a jacketed chamber near a t h e r m o m e t e r . Orifices of various sizes can be provided. ΐ 3 Volumetric Flask
TALK/LISTEN The most convenient and efficient way to communicate between labs and offices is TALK-0. Simple to hook-up, simple to use . . . Person calling from any TALK-0 Master station can talk, then listen by pressing same key; person called may answer from any where in room without interrupting his work. Any number from 2 to 11 stations may be linked together for instant, private com munication. No interference from lab equipment. TALK-0 stations are small, attractive and easily located.
