Particles analysis became nowadays essential in many fields. Powder
granulometry is a must know if one is to control perfectly a production process.
Cement or ceramic properties
depend on the distribution of particle size. There are numerous examples
in many fields : cements, ceramics, mineral, pharmaceutical, geology, paintings,
ink, petrochemical industry...
The Zeta potential is a second parameter enabling to anticipate the particles
behaviour in an environment, and notably its stability.
At last, the morphological analysis enables to complete an analysis and
to explain powders behaviour, or a powder intification during medico-legal
analysis.
Granulometer
The analysis of particles size distribution is an essential data to
anticipate the powder behaviour in a process, or its physical properties
(cement, ceramic, toner...).
Zetameter
The Zeta potential is a parameter which describes the interaction
between a particle with its environment, thus it enables to anticipate
a suspension or an emulsion stability.
Morphological
analysis
If the sizes analysis and the distribution analysis enable to characterize
quickly and reliably a powder, these analysis do not give any information
on particles shape.
Rehometer
Rehology is the study of fluids flow and solids distortion when subjected
to constraints or distortions.
