The new AcoustoSizer IIs provides thorough characterization of concentrated colloidal dispersions. Directly measuring particle size, zeta potential, pH, conductivity, and temperature, it furnishes the most comprehensive analysis available in a single, turnkey instrument.

There are two types of foam-related criteria: people who want foam and those who don't! After years of working with customers on different problems, Teclis has developed a range of instruments to quantify foaming.

The Demixing Tester LUMiCheck^® is a measuring instrument for the use in research, development and quality control laboratories. It is used for the fast stability analysis and particle characterization of dispersions, with respect to the comparison of samples of similar type. Up to 8 concentrated or diluted dispersions can, independent of each other, be measured in different sample cells. The instrument is operated using a touch screen.

Some benefits are:

• A quick check of formulation stability – minimize of cassation
• Menus in your local language – everyone can understand
• Less price – it’s affordable

The Separation Analyser LUMiReader^® determines the demixing of suspensions and emulsions for a large range of particle sizes under original storage conditions, e.g. sedimentation, flocculation and clarification. The demixing process is accelerated using a patented measuring principle, without stressing the sample by additional mechanical forces.

Some benefits are:

• Accelerated shelf life measurements under normal conditions – products quicker to market
• Detailed information of particles and formulation stability without knowledge of material data – outstanding feedback to improve product quality
• Immediate identification of large particles – identify badly homogenized dispersions.

The High-end Dispersion Analyser LUMiSizer® of L.U.M. GmbH is your complete dispersion lab, all in one instrument. The Analytical Centrifuge has been developed to speed up and accurately predict the stability and rheological behaviour of nano- and microscaled dispersions and simultaneously calculate the particle size distribution.

Some benefits are: 

• Shorter formulation development – products quicker to market
• Detailed information of particles and formulation stability without knowledge of material data – outstanding feedback to improve product quality
• Quick QC check to identify product quality – minimize cassation

Wet and Dry Sample, Particle Size and Shape Analysis

From the pioneering work, with over 30 years of experience and more than 10 000 units sold worldwide, Microtrac is still the technical leader in Laser Diffraction/Static light scattering techniques. The tri-laser setup with no moving parts ensure the highest robustness available on the market and the tri-laser system has a broad particle size range (10nm—2000µm without any lens changes).

The BlueWave system is unique for its real blue lasers which provides the highest sensitivity and resolution available. Special calculations for non-spherical particles also ensures that both spherical and non-spherical particles are measured correctly.

A special feature is to complement laser diffraction with our unique Image Analysis module SIA. This will replace the need of a time consuming microscopy and  gives images and statistical information about the size and shape of all the particles. One single large

particle that might affect the stability or quality of the sample can now be found.

Two technologies - One instrument

SIA is a photo-optical image analyzing module for in-depth shape analysis of wet suspensions and slurries.  The module can be added to any Microtrac S3500 or Bluewave Particle Size Analysis system equipped for wet applications.  Alternatively, the unit may be bundled with a manually operated circulation pump (like the Microtrac USVR) as a stand alone image analysis system.

Fast and easy  method for formulation development. Zeta Potential-, Streaming Potential-, Particle Size, Conductivity-, pH-, Temperature- and Time- measurement simultaneously in tough colloidal systems.

Dynamic Light Scattering for nano particle characterization

Microtrac has been a pioneer in particle sizing technology for over 35 years! In 1990 Microtrac released the Ultrafine Particle Analyzer incorporating the Controlled Reference Method of analysis of dynamic light scattering particle sizing. The Nanotrac Wave is the latest generation of dynamic light scattering sub-micron analyzers from Microtrac.

The core methodology of the Wave is Dynamic Light Scattering, however unlike mainstream Photon Correlation Spectroscopy [PCS], Microtrac utilizes a unique Controlled Reference Method.

The AccuSizer 780 is the first fully automated, high resolution particle sizing instrument in its class. AccuSizer 780 provides the true particle size distribution, clearly showing the details of the distribution that other technologies usually miss. Using a patented autodilution system it is no longer necessary to trade accuracy, sensitivity and resolution for speed. No need for knowing physical parameters of sample nor dispersant. Size range from 0.15 - 2500 microns. Solvent compatible let you choose the optimal dispersant for your samples.

The 380 is the only dynamic light scattering instrument designed using a modular approach. The standard NICOMP 380 comes equipped with a 15 mW laser diode and PMT detector with an optical fiber set at 90 degrees. Other options include:

• Autodilution
• High powered Lasers/APD Detector
• Zeta-potential
• Multiangle
• Autosampler

The Tracker™ is an automated drop tensiometer which can measure variations in surface tension, contact angle or interfacial tension over time.  The instrument are available in three different versions from manual to fully automatic with temperature and pressure control.  can also measure the contact angle of a liquid against a solid. Please read more here.

The ZetaProbe is the easiest to use, most accurate zeta potential analyzer available. Samples can be measured without dilution or sample preparation at concentrations up to 60% volume. Even the direct measurements of pastes, gels, cements, and other difficult materials are possible with the ZetaProbe.
