Particle size analyzer is a type of instrument used to measure and analyze the size, shape and distribution of particles in a sample. This type of analyzer is used in a variety of industries such as pharmaceutical, food, chemical and cosmetic. The technology used to measure the particles in a sample can be either optical or electrical.
Optical particle size analyzers use light to capture images of the particles in a sample. This type of instrument is beneficial for analyzing particles that are too small for traditional methods and for collecting detailed information about the size, shape and distribution of particles.
Electrical particle size analyzers use electrical signals to measure the size and shape of particles in a sample. This type of instrument is highly accurate and can measure particles that are too small for optical methods.
Particle size analyzers can be used for a variety of applications, such as determining the size of particles in a sample, examining the shape of particles, and analyzing the distribution of particles in a sample. This type of instrument is also used to measure the particle size range of a sample and to detect particles that are out of range.
Particle size analyzers are essential for a variety of industries, as they provide detailed information about the size and shape of particles in a sample. This type of instrument can be used to optimize formulations, increase product consistency, and reduce costs. It can also be used to detect impurities and to improve the safety of products.
The Global Particle size analyzer market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
The innovative Mastersizer 3000 particle size analyzer from Malvern Panalytical is a flexible, small device that fits the needs of modern laboratories in terms of workflow demands, resource limitations, and analytical requirements.
The Mastersizer 3000 measures the size and distribution of particles in materials using the laser diffraction method. This is accomplished by measuring the amount of light scattered when a laser beam goes through a sample of dispersed particulate matter.
Subsequently, the size of the particles responsible for the scattering pattern is determined by analysing this data. The system is made possible by three key components, which work together to give robust, accurate particle sizing data on a regular basis. This data is essential for the smooth running of numerous industrial processes.
With its ability to measure in a single optical measurement channel between 10 nm and 3.5 mm, Mastersizer 3000 is highly adaptable to a wide range of applications. A laser beam illuminates the particles as the scattered sample travels over the optical bench’s measurement area.
Next, over a broad variety of angles and for both red and blue light wavelengths, a series of detectors precisely measures the intensity of light dispersed by the particles within the sample. With the ability to handle a broad range of sample quantities and dispersants, the Mastersizer 3000 provides six options for wet dispersion accessories.
The Mastersizer 3000 software satisfies the increasing need for user-friendly tools that produce superior outcomes without requiring continual expert involvement.
During the measuring procedure, the system is managed by software, which also computes a particle size distribution by evaluating scattering data. Users are guided through every step of the procedure by its user-friendly interface, which includes routine measurement, result reporting, and the selection of a robust approach.
Particle size analysis is made easier and faster by the built-in professional guidance on technique performance and results quality, which also lowers training requirements.
To achieve precise, repeatable measurements, sample dispersion units make sure that particles are supplied to the optical bench’s measurement area at the right concentration and in a stable enough state of dispersion.
