90Plus Nanoparticle Size Analyzer

CATALOG NAME: 90Plus Nanoparticle Size Analyzer

DESCRIPTION: 90Plus apparatus with a solid-state, standard laser of 35 mW can be used to determine the effective (hydrodynamic) diameter, polydispersity index, and particle size distribution weighted by number, volume, or intensity by Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) technique. Sample type can be most colloidal-sized materials, suspended in any clear liquid, and sample volume is of max. 3.5 mL. The particle size range is around 1 nm to 6 µm depending on refractive index, concentration, and scattering angle. The sample materials (polymers, proteins, colloids, or nanoparticles) will scatter incoming laser light, at scattering angles of 15° or 90°. Due to the random motion of these particles, the scattered light intensity fluctuates in time. Processing the fluctuating signal with a digital autocorrelator yields the particle’s diffusion coefficient, from which the equivalent spherical particle size (effective diameter) is calculated using the Stokes-Einstein equation. Molecular weights can also be calculated from these fluctuations or from the scattered intensity. 90Plus apparatus is equipped with BI-Zeta module and electrode assembly that allow zeta potential determinations in water and other polar liquids by Phase Analysis Light Scattering (PALS) technique. DLS and PALS measurements can be performed on diluted suspensions with a concentration ranging 0.0001…1 % v/v.

Diffusivimeter LFA 447 Nanoflash

CATALOG NAME: LFA 447 Nanoflash

Difuzivimetru tip LFA 447 Nanoflash Netzsch Germania

DESCRIPTION: The LFA 447 NanoFlash is a powerful research tool for making accurate, rapid thermal diffusivity tests on small specimens of materials such as: metals, graphite, coatings, composites, ceramics, polymers. A xenon flash bulb is utilized to quickly heat the lower side of the sample by emitting a light pulse. The heat is then transferred through the sample and is detected by an infrared sensor on the upper sample surface. Thermal diffusivity of a sample with a known thickness and density is then calculated using the time interval between the flash lamp firing a pulse and the infrared sensor detecting the same pulse. The software that accompanies the LFA has built in correlations to calculate the specific heat capacity of the sample. Additionally, the sample is contained within a heater capable of operating up to 300°C.

Chemiluminometer LUMIPOL 3

CATALOG NAME: Lumipol 3

DESCRIPTION: Lumipol 3 is an extremely sensitive photon counting instrument for measuring chemiluminescence with almost zero background signal. The instrument measures ultra weak light emissions accompanying reactions of various substrates usually of oxidation character. The equipment may find wide use in both science and industry, especially where the problem of stability, stabilization and fatigue of polymers of other nonvolatile organic substrates are in the centre of research interest. Lumipol 3 is suitable for detection and measuring of thermal oxidation of polymers or thermal decomposition of preoxidized polymers containing hydroperoxides from ambient temperature to 240°C. The standard atmosphere is ensured by flow of gas at maximum rate of 150 ml/min. Extreme sensitivity, which is achieved by almost zero background noise, enables to measure the oxidation of polymers already at 40°C and the tendency towards oxidation of organic substrates even in the so-called "induction period" may be well estimated. The efficiency of various antioxidants and polymer stabilizers may thus be evaluated. The substrate examined may involve polymers, food components, edible oils and margarines, motor oils, paraffins, crude oil additives, inorganic materials, etc. The contamination of metal and ceramic surfaces may be detected and quantified as well. Lumipol 3 is an effective analytical tool for testing, the life-service of materials in combination with ageing ovens and for determination of associated hydroperoxides in solid materials. It is possible to quantify surface homogeneity as well as to screen the efficiency of stabilizing systems without necessity to wait for the end of induction period of oxidation.
