The new standard in the SALD series. While maintaining continuity and compatibility with respect to the data of the SALD2000/2100/2200, which were popular, widely distributed models, this instrument is equipped with many new functions useful for evaluating changes (dispersion, aggregation, dissolution) in particle size distribution relative to the concentration or time. It supports a particle concentration range from 0.1 ppm to 20% and can perform a series of measurements of 200 data points at 1 second minimum intervals.
Features
Wide applicability
Using the SALD-MS23 sampler, the measurement range is 17nm to 2500μm for wet measurement.
For example, PSL particles with a median diameter of 50nm and stainless balls with a diameter of 2mm can be measured by a single analyzer.
High sensitivity / High concentration
By enabling measurement under wide particle concentration conditions (0.1ppm to 20%), changes in particle size distribution depending on particle concentration can be evaluated.
Previously, the particle concentration of a sample had to be adjusted to meet the optimum conditions of analyzers by dilution or concentration using a centrifuge. In these cases, changes in particle size distribution, such as agglomerations or dispersions, could not be considered.
Dispersions and agglomeration can be caused by dilutions.
In some cases, dilutions can accelerate dispersions, but in other cases, they can create agglomerates.
