Product news

Beckman Coulter, Inc. has announced that the new Delsa™Nano Series Particle Analyzer has begun shipping. Previewed at last year’s Pittcon, the new instruments perform zeta potential and particle size analysis on the same sample. The systems are designed to deliver accurate size measurement on particles ranging from 0.6 nm to 7 µm.

The DelsaNano is also designed to measure the zeta potential of concentrated material and solid flat surfaces such as films, paper and glass. It is ideal for any liquid application, including pharmaceuticals, water treatment, paints, paper and petrochemicals.

Beckman Coulter offers two models in the series – the DelsaNano S for particle size analysis and the DelsaNano C for size and zeta potential measurement of particles in liquid suspension or zeta potential measurement of solid surfaces. An optional Auto Titrator is easily integrated for pH adjustment of the sample.

“We are pleased to offer our customers a single instrument with such flexibility and versatility,” commented Guillermo Smart, product manager for Beckman Coulter. “In addition, all aspects of the system are easy to use.”

Particle CharacterizationParticle characterization instruments are used to determine particle size distribution, shape, surface area, zeta potential, density and porosity of particles and materials. Multiple tecchniques are available for determining particle size, shape and count including dynamic light scattering (DLS), laser diffraction, electrozone (Coulter technique), imaging particle analysis and single particle optical sensing. Determine the density of your material with a gas pycnometer or examine its surface area and porosity with gas adsorption analyzers and mercury porosimeters.
