Particle Sizing And Characterisation

Particle Sizing and Characterisation

Particle sizing and counting is a vital step in the quality control and assurance of almost any manufactured product. We supply high-quality machines that use various particle counting and sizing techniques for the analysis of aerosols, liquids and slurries, including:

  • Particle optical sizing
  • Capillary hydrodynamic fractionation
  • Acoustic attenuation spectrometry
  • Scattered light spectrometry
  • LUM STEP-Technology®


Our numerous particle sizing and counting instruments are suitable for a wide range of applications within the quality control and quality assurance markets. From analysis of airborne particles for clean room validation to flocculation and separation investigations in liquids, our clients can find what they are looking for within our product catalogue.

Industry spotlight

Ceramics

Particle size analysis is a crucial stage in the manufacture of ceramics. The size and distribution of the powders used in the manufacturing process directly relate to the physical and mechanical properties of the finished ceramic product. Various techniques, such as laser diffraction and acoustic spectroscopy, can be used to analyse and control particle size and distribution to ensure a reliable supply of standardised products that meet the strength and durability requirements of the end user.

Paint and coating manufacture

The physical properties of paints and coatings are heavily impacted by particle size within bulk ingredients. Optical properties, including opacity, undertone, gloss or film, weather resistance and tinting strength are also influenced by particle size, as well as pigment dispersion. This means that particle sizing, counting and distribution analysis is vital to creating a product whose properties and finish are of the quality expected by customers.
