Thermographic paint for low temperature applications

HERP-LT

Special thermographic spray paint with high emissivity and mechanical resistance for low temperature applications up to 100 °C. The precisely defined dependence of the emissivity on the wavelength and the viewing angle of the infrared camera enables to achieve very precise results of thermographic measurements.
