Apparatus for particle size determination in water
Equipment type:
Size and Zeta potential characterization of dispersed particles and
molecules in water solution on basis of DLS (DLS: Dynamic Light Scattering)
Manufacturer / Brand: Malvern
Model:
ZEN3600, Zetasizer Nano ZS
Scope of usage:
Particle size characterization of colloid dispersions (Hydrodynamic
radius determination), size range from 0,6nm to 6 microns. Measurement
of Zeta potention in water based solution or dispersion on the basis of
Electrophoretic mobility (size range for Zeta potential: 5nm to 10 microns).
Examples of application
for polymer analysis / information that can be obtained by this method for
polymers:
Particle size determination is a characteristic of water-bazed binders or
dispersion of nano particles in liquid media.
Zeta potential or isoelectric point is an important characteristic for
determining stability of colloid systems.
Measurement
range:
Sample limitations: Particle size range from 0,6nm to 6 microns, size range for Zeta potential: 5nm to 10 microns. Water based samples.
Limitation of
application conditions:
20 °C - 70 °C
