The QCMD 110 is an enhanced single-channel Quartz Crystal Microbalance with Dissipation (QCM-D) instrument designed for high-precision, real-time characterization of molecule–surface interactions and thin films. By simultaneously monitoring changes in frequency and energy dissipation, the system provides information about mass changes and the viscoelastic properties of surface-bound layers. This makes the QCMD 110 suitable for investigating adsorption, film formation, molecular interactions, and changes in the structure and mechanical properties of surface layers. The QCMD 110 provides an extended temperature range of 15–65°C with ±0.01°C control and a maximum time resolution of 500 measurement points per second, making it suitable for experiments involving rapid surface and interfacial processes. The system can also be expanded with electrochemical, high-frequency QCM, and advanced fluidic modules according to research requirements.
