When synthesizing new materials and using existing powders, one of the key factors affecting their effectiveness and performance is particle size. Precise control of particle size allows optimization of the surface properties of materials.
Our laboratory uses the HORIBA LA-960 particle size analyzer, a state-of-the-art instrument that provides extensive capabilities for analyzing particles in the range from 10 nanometers to 5 millimeters. This instrument features advanced nanoparticle measurement technology, making it ideal for handling highly dispersed materials.
HORIBA LA-960 is applicable to a wide range of samples, including suspensions, emulsions, powders, pastes, gels and creams. The device is equipped with a convenient nozzle for working with dry powders (PowderJet), which simplifies sample preparation and expands the possibilities of its use. In addition, only micrograms of sample are required for analysis, reducing the cost of analysis.
The analyzer provides high flexibility and complete automation of measurement sequences, which maximizes accuracy and method compliance. The device is characterized by high reproducibility and accuracy. The ability to obtain measurements in less than 60 seconds significantly improves productivity.
