As particle sizing methodologies grow ever more sophisticated, it is becoming increasingly difficult to measure the degree of resolution offered by the latest instruments. Image analysis methods, for example, offer one of the highest resolutions available today but until now it has been difficult to quantify the resolution.
At ACHEMA 2009 (11–15 May; Frankfurt, Germany) Whitehouse Scientific will launch a new Multimodal Standard that is designed to address this challenge. In this standard, eight distinct peaks have been produced between 500 and 2000 microns.
For very small particle sizes, a Multimodal Standard with ten peaks between 0.1 and 1.5 microns has been prepared for evaluation.

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.
