Determination of Particles Size Distribution of Chocolate
9 Nov 2010This application note demonstrates a method to test the texture of chocolate. The particle size distributions of different types of high quality chocolate from the same producer were measured using a FRITSCH ANALYSETTE 22. Prior to the measurement, the chocolate samples where pre-dispersed in an organic solvent.

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. Find the best particle characterization instruments in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.
