Introduction
Dynamic light scattering (DLS) is the most prevalent size analysis technique for nanoparticles. The nanotechnology revolution has created higher demand for online DLS systems and the Nicomp Online has improved to remain the most popular solution.
- PSS expertise in sample dilution techniques allows adjustment of sample concentration for the optimum DLS measurement.
- The hydraulics are flushed and made ready for measurement of another sample.
- Light intensity is automatically controlled using a neutral density filter.
- Analysis algorithms are Gaussian and Nicomp high resolution ultimodel with the ability to split peaks.
Features
- Automated sampling
- Live updates of particle sizing
- Range of detector and laser types to suit application
- On-Line or At-Line
- Fluidics accept sample, dilutes if required and measures
- Measurement frequency: 2-3 minutes
- Can dilute to count rate or use
- Multi-modal peak detection algorithm
- Automatic alarms for selected parameters
Measures
- Nanoparticles in process streams from 1 nanometer to 1 micron
- Ability to develop parameters vs particle size correlation, ie. homogenizer pressure vs particle size.
