Particle size analysis by laser diffraction offers many advantages. The technique is fast, reliable, and can be used for analyzing a wide range of particle sizes. In laser diffraction scattering as a function of angle is measured and the data used to determine the particle size distribution. The technique can be used over a very wide range of particle sizes -- 10's of nm to 100's of microns. In addition it is very fast and reliable. In this webinar, Dr. Jeff Bodycomb will discuss:
Exactly what happens when light strikes a particle
Light intensity and how it effects the measurement
Fraunhofer vs. Mie
Real and imaginary refractive index values
This is a great introduction to someone who wants to understand the science behind the measurement.
