Particle characterization is useful in industrial laboratories, pharmaceutical, academia, and research and development laboratories. By far the most important physical property of particulate samples is the particle size. Particle size measurement is routinely carried out across a wide range of industries and is often a critical parameter in the manufacture of many products. Knowledge of particle sizes and the size distribution of a powder system is also a prerequisite for most production and processing operations. Particle size has a direct influence on material properties such as reactivity or dissolution rate e.g. catalysts, tablets; stability in suspension e.g. sediments, paints; efficacy of delivery e.g. asthma inhalers; texture and feel e.g. food ingredients; appearance e.g. powder coatings and inks; flowability and handling e.g. granules; viscosity e.g. nasal sprays; packing density and porosity e.g. ceramics. Therefore, measuring particle size and understanding how it affects your products and processes can be critical to the success of many manufacturing businesses.
As an analytical testing company with extensive experience in material particle size characterization, Alfa Chemistry can provide incredible services and credible testing results for our clients.
