"The Centre for Materials Discovery focuses on the use of high throughput methods for the discovery of materials with entirely new properties or step-change improvements in performance. The Kibron Delta-8-is an invaluable module in a number of our workflows, particularly in programs directed towards the design of new functional surfactants." Professor Andrew Cooper, Director of the Centre for Materials Discovery, University of Liverpool |

How to develop your detergent formulations faster?
Today, there is a rapidly growing need to redesign existing brands, to reduce their environmental footprint, to reduce VOC, to make them biodegradable, and compatible with REACH. The performance and customer acceptance of industrial and household cleaning solutions and beauty care products, from hard surface cleaners and laundry products, to shampoos, cosmetics and disinfectants, all depend on the right choices and proper contents of the surfactants, polymers, and fragrances. The key parameters reflecting product performance are surface tension, critical micelle concentration (CMC), and critical aggregation concentration (CAC). Kibron CMCeeker brings you these data, fast and cost-efficiently, significantly reducing the time to market.
High throughput CMC screening
The Kibron Delta-8 and the CMCeeker assay allows surfactant formulators for cost effective high throughput experimenting of an immense number of surfactants and their combinations, yielding critical parameters by which you can optimize and improve your product formulations.With the CMCeeker CMC measurements are performed 100 times faster compared to conventional methods, using a fraction of sample material. This brings you not only significant savings in R & D as well as manufacturing costs, but also better performing and more environment-friendly products.

Design Perfect, Safer Formulations for Your Personal Care Products
Various beauty care products are applied directly to the skin on a daily basis. The industry is facing increasingly higher demands on the safety and quality of the raw materials. Replacing the old problematic ingredients (petroleum based) with naturally derived renewable raw materials strives the companies to reformulate and develop safer, milder and more environment-friendly products.

Quality Control
Quality control
AquaPi is very fast and easy to use, requiring no special training. The calibration time is short and the measurement is done in less than 30 seconds, with a clear digital readout for surface tension values. The standard cuvette volume is only three milliliters. The single-use cuvettes ensure accurate results, eliminating the risk for contamination. AquaPi is excellent for basic surface surfactant research and educational use.
Further, for on-site monitoring of surfactant quality for quality assurance provides immediate alert for the presence of e.g. solvents, oil, and detergents in different batches of surfactants.
