Accurate Measurement of Particle Sizes of Polymers with the Agilent 7010 Particle Size Analyzer Application Note

Abstract: Many properties of polymeric particles depend on particle size distribution (PSD), so its important to be able to measure particle sizes in the nanometer to low micrometer range without error. When the PSD contains particles of more than one size population, traditional light scattering techniques are often unable to resolve them, and these instruments typically fail to detect a population of small particles in the presence of a population of large particles. The Agilent 7010 Particle Size Spectrophotometer overcomes these limitations to quickly and accurately measure both particle sizes and concentrations in complex mixtures of fine polymeric particles.
