KSV Instruments Ltd has more than 20 years of experience in developing and manufacturing instruments for nano- and surface science research. The main products of the company are instruments for surface/interfacial tension and contact angle measurements, as well as so called Langmuir and Langmuir-Blodgett instruments, which are used for preparing and studying nanometer thick organic layers on air-water interfaces and solid substrates.
Furthermore, KSV also manufactures more specialized characterization instruments such as Brewster Angle Microscopes for thin organic film characterization and Quartz Crystal Microbalances for very small (nanogram) mass changes at interfaces during adsorption/desorption processes or reactions taking place at the interface. KSV is very actively looking for new ideas for instruments to develop in the field of nano- and biotechnology and surface chemistry.
