Whitehouse Scientific Extend Range of Monodisperse Glass Beads Available

Whitehouse Scientific has responded to an increased interest in automated measurement of large particle sizes by introducing single size glass beads of greater than 1 mm in diameter.

Traditionally, sieve analysis has been used for such large sizes, which are also near the upper limit of some laser diffraction methods of analysis. As image analysers now have a firm foothold in this sector, there is a requirement for NIST traceable reference calibration beads.

The Monodisperse Standards have very narrow particle size distributions and come in sets of five single shot bottles, together with a NIST traceable test certificate. Application areas include pharmaceuticals, foodstuffs, polymers and speciality chemicals.
