Japanese JASCO Wet Dispersion Image Analysis Particle Size Distribution Meter IF-4200
Japan JASCO Wet Dispersion Image Analysis Particle Size Distribution Meter IF-4200
Disperse powder particles completely through a liquid medium (water, organic solvents, etc.) to avoid issues of particle agglomeration or breakage that occur in dry dispersion, making it especially suitable for fragile, easily agglomerated, or nanoscale powders.。
Using a high-resolution camera andTelecentric Lens, ensuring that the projected image of the particles is free from distortion and has a constant magnification, achieving precise imaging of micron-scale (200 nm to 1 mm) particles.。
Using 440 nm monochromatic blue light illumination enhances the edge contrast of tiny particles, improving image resolution accuracy.。
A single measurement can output over 30 particle size and shape parameters, including:
Grain size parametersCircle area equivalent diameter, circumference equivalent diameter, **/* minimum Feret diameter, etc.;
Shape parameterCircularity, aspect ratio, concavity, transparency, etc.。
Supports various visualization results such as 2D scatter plots, histograms, and particle image lists, providing an intuitive display of particle distribution characteristics.。
Automated process: Sample injection → Image acquisition → Real-time analysis → Result display, the entire process takes only a few minutes.。
Users can directly observe particle images to quickly determine the state of particle agglutination or the presence of foreign matter contamination.。
Supports multiple dispersion media (water, ethanol, acetone, etc.) and surfactants, adaptable to different powder characteristics.。
An optional temperature control module (e.g., IF-3300) can be added to study the effect of temperature on powder dispersion behavior.。
Pharmaceutical industryAnalyze the particle size and shape of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and excipients to optimize the tablet compression process.
Chemical materialsEvaluate the dispersion uniformity of powders such as catalysts, pigments, and fillers.
Food industry: Detect the agglomeration state of particles such as starch and powdered sugar.
NanomaterialsCharacterize the particle size distribution and morphological features of nanopowders.。
In summary, the IF-4200, through the combination of wet dispersion and high-precision image analysis, provides a solution for the powder industry that balances bothParticle size distributionandShape characteristicsA comprehensive analysis tool, particularly suitable for application scenarios sensitive to particle morphology.。
