Particle size analysis: reducing sample volumes to just a few millilitres
Malvern Instruments, Malvern, UK, reports that the new Mastersizer 3000 Hydro SV small volume liquid dispersion unit delivers reliable particle size measurement using just a few milligrams of sample (see also EBS News for week of 6 October). Particle size is a performance-defining parameter for many industrial products. The ability to measure small sample sizes becomes crucial when sample availability prevents the use of larger amounts of material. This is especially true during early stage product development, for example. By minimising sample and dispersant use the Hydro SV also reduces the development, purchase and disposal costs associated with routine analysis.
Efficient sample dispersion ensures that the particle size data measured by a laser diffraction analyzer are both representative and relevant. Launching on the third anniversary of the Mastersizer 3000, the Hydro SV is a simple, easy to use wet dispersion accessory. It extends smarter particle sizing to small volume measurement by making it possible to both develop and apply wet dispersion using just 6mL of sample. www.malvern.com
