Particle Size Analysis
Particle size analysis involves determining the size distribution of particles in a sample. Our services provide essential insights that support product development and manufacturing, ensuring quality and performance.
The Importance of Particle Size Analysis in Various Industries
Particle size analysis plays a crucial role in numerous industries by influencing product quality, efficiency, and safety. In the pharmaceutical sector, precise particle size ensures consistent drug delivery and efficacy.
In the chemical industry, it affects reaction rates and stability. The food and drink industry relies on it for texture and taste consistency, while the electronics and semiconductor fields use it to enhance material properties and performance.
LabAlliance offers particle size analysis services that meet diverse industry needs. This support helps industries achieve optimal outcomes and maintain high standards.
Techniques and Methods of Particle Size Analysis
The analysis employs various techniques and methods to accurately determine the size and distribution of particles in a sample. Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) is a popular method that measures the Brownian motion of particles in a liquid to determine their size.
Static Light Scattering (SLS) analyzes the scattering pattern of particles to provide size information. Electrophoretic Light Scattering (ELS) is used for measuring the zeta potential of particles, which indicates their suspension stability. Other methods include laser diffraction, sedimentation, and image analysis, each offering unique advantages for specific applications.
The analysis employs various techniques and methods to accurately determine the size and distribution of particles in a sample. Laser diffraction is a widely used technique that measures the scattering pattern of particles when illuminated by a laser beam to determine their size distribution.
Laser diffraction offers several advantages, including high accuracy and the ability to measure a wide range of particle sizes. This method is effective for materials ranging from nanometers to millimeters in size, making it suitable for diverse industries such as pharmaceuticals, chemicals, ceramics, and food processing.
