Particle Size Analyzer
The Malvern Mastersizer 2000 Particle Size Analyzer uses laser diffraction to determine grain sizes between 0.02 to 2000 μm. It can measure a wide range of sample types such as dry powders, emulsions and suspensions. Particle size analysis plays a vital role in many geological applications.
Particle size analysis of a geologic area can reveal critical information about the region’s formation, history and climate. Particle characterization is an important tool for studying changes in geology and climate over time, mode of formation, and current environmental effects related to pollution transport, erosion, and sediment transport.
