Particle size characterization

The accurate measurement of particle characteristics is essential in many industrial and research processes. A large number of particle characterization instruments are available, offering a wide range of options and functions. It is important to select the appropriate instrument for your specific needs in order to ensure optimal results. When purchasing a particle characterization instrument the first consideration should be what characteristics need to be measured. Laser diffraction instruments are widely used for size measurements only, image analysis instruments tend to be used for size and shape data, while acoustic spectroscopy instruments can be used to measure both size and zeta potential.
