Synopsis
Centrifuge Sedimentation Particle Size Analyzer is an instrument used to measure the size and distribution of particles in suspension. It uses centrifugal force to settle particles from the liquid and infers their particle size based on their settling speed during the centrifugal process. The following are the main components and working principle of the instrument: centrifuge: provides centrifugal force to separate particles in the sample from the liquid. Centrifuges typically have adjustable speed and centrifugal time. Sample container: used for loading samples to be tested and suspension. Optical system: including laser light source, optical detector, and optical transparent window. The laser light source generates a beam of light that illuminates the particles in the sample container, and the optical detector detects the light signal scattered by the particles. Data analysis system: By analyzing the characteristics of scattered light signals, relevant algorithms and models are used to calculate the size distribution of particles. The working principle of a centrifugal sedimentation particle size analyzer is to inject the sample to be tested into a sample container, which is placed in a centrifuge and rotates. The centrifugal force causes the particles to settle from the liquid. During the settling process, the laser beam illuminates the particles in the sample container, and the light signal scattered by the particles is received and recorded by an optical detector. Based on the settling speed of particles, the particle size and distribution can be inferred. The advantages of centrifugal sedimentation particle size analyzer include the ability to handle a wide range of sample types and measurement ranges, as well as providing high-resolution and accurate particle size analysis results. It is widely used in fields such as particle analysis, quality control, research and development, and is particularly suitable for measuring the particle size distribution of small particles, such as nanoparticles and colloidal particles.
