Non-toxic dyne test kits contain dyne pens. The dyne pens make sure that you don’t have to participate in any risky or time-consuming quality check processes. They are designed to do quality checks of treatments on plastic substrates. It looks similar to a regular marker pen and can be used after unwrapping it.
The pens are equipped with an applicator on the tip which prevents it from undergoing the intrinsic disadvantage that “Felt tip pen” and “Magic marker” have. The dyne pens can provide a proper and accurate result of surface energy due to it. If the surface energy level is low, it means that the adhesion of coating, inks, glues, and other polymer based substance would be poor. The non-toxic dyne test kits are used in the packaging industry as it helps determine if the plastic substance has adequate surface tension or not to laminate, print or coat things.
It is easy to measure the surface energy with the help of a dyne pen. All you have to do is draw the dyne test pen across the surface of the material that you want to test. While you draw it across the surface it releases a liquid which would form a constant film on the surface. If the film remains on it for at least 3 seconds or more, it means that surface energy is minimum required. If the liquid draws back into droplets almost immediately, it means the surface energy is lower than required. To find the exact measurement of the surface energy different dyne test pens have to be used which have increasing and decreasing numbers.

Here are the benefits of using non-toxic dyne test kits:
There is no scrap material left after testing. Other test methods leave behind a lot of scrap material after the quality checks are done which has to be dealt with separately then.- Dyne pens produce quick results. It is a simple process and the results can be seen in just 3 seconds.
- There is no need of any expert supervisor as it is really easy to use. Any person with knowledge about Polypropylene and Polyethylene treatments can do the test and check the results.
- It is one of the most trusted and reliable methods to determine the substrate’s treat level. Various researches have found it to be the most accurate method of verifying treat levels.
- It is not a costly thing to purchase and use. The dyne pens are affordable and easily available to buy. It can be ordered from reputed dyne test makers and suppliers.
