Aim: Sampling, sample preparation, and off-line measurement are inconvenient steps for particle size characterization, as they require trained operators, method validation and sometimes transport to ...

This article looks at the particle size distribution of three different ground calcium carbonates measured by the laser diffraction method. Representative size values and size distribution curves were ...

In this interview Jason Lin, an application scientist at Wyatt Technology Corporation, talks to AZoM, about the challenges faced due to sample properties when measuring dynamic light scattering (DLS) ...

Horiba has developed a particle size distribution measuring device that accurately measures particle size distribution even in the presence of similar-shaped particles. The device uses image ...

As many countries have begun tightening their standards for diesel emissions, automakers and suppliers have begun looking for new diesel-emissions test equipment and test methods. Certification test ...

Cosmetic products contain particles and emulsions that require special distributions for coverage and other desired results. Cosmetic products may also be affected by particle sizes for their ...

A fundamental difficulty of working with nanoparticles is that your objects of study are too small for an optical microscope to resolve, and thus measuring their size can be quite a challenge. Of ...
