Thwing Albert announces the release of the new ACT 2500

Release Date:  9/07/2007

Thwing-Albert is pleased to announce the introduction of the innovative ACT (Automatic Cobb Tester).  The ACT applies water to a sized (non-bibulous) specimen surface during a preset test time (e.g. 60 seconds).  As water is absorbed by the specimen, the water level inside the test chamber is reduced, which is   monitored in real time. This brand new technology reveals the different dynamic components of water absorption.
