Particle size
The stability, chemical reactivity, opacity, flowability and material strength of many materials are affected by the size and characteristics of the particles within them. Getting things right at every stage of production, from R & D through to manufacture and quality control of the finished product is vital. |

 |
Particle shape
Image analysis is a technology which is particularly suited to analyzing particle size and particle shape as it generates data by capturing direct images of each particle. |

Zeta potential
Zeta potential is a measure of the magnitude of the repulsion or attraction between particles. Its measurement brings detailed insight into the dispersion mechanism and is the key to electrostatic dispersion control. |

Dispersion stability
When a new product is formulated, one of the biggest consumers of time is the measurement of the stability of the candidate formulations in a variety of conditions. Knowledge of dispersion stability is an extremely important parameter across a wide range of industries. |

Chemical Imaging
Chemical imaging is an exciting new analytical approach that enables the quantitative and spatial identification of chemical species in a sample. In very simple terms it can be considered as a chemical map. |

 |
Molecular weight
The molecular weight of biological materials and polymers can be determined from both static light scattering and dynamic light scattering experiments using the Zetasizer Nano. |
 |
 |
 |
Rheological properties
The measurement of rheological properties can help to develop a better product, predict its end use performance with customers and predict the physical properties of a product during and after processing. |
