Particle Technology Labs announces the installation of our newest image analysis instrument, the Malvern Morphologi 4-ID. This instrument will provide the same advanced particle size and shape image analysis as our G3S, however the 4-ID has the added capability to chemically identify particles using Morphologically Directed Raman Spectroscopy (MDRS).

Image Analysis
Image analysis is a powerful analytical technique which can provide additional information on a sample compared to standard particle size and distribution. The majority of particle sizing techniques assume an equivalent spherical diameter determined from measuring a related physical property (projected area, scattered/blocked light, displaced volume, etc.). This simplification is advantageous as a sphere is the only shape which can be described using a single number (i.e diameter).
