Nano-particle Characterisation: Case Study of Titania

Intertek MSG is using its specialised instrumentation to do some in-depth characterisation of commercially-available dispersions of nano-particles.

The type of information of interest might range from knowing an accurate particle size distribution of a nano particulate material that is being bought or manufactured, right through to assessing the property benefits of a polymer filled with such a nano particulate filler.

There are many tools available for looking at particle size distribution (PSD) of particulates, each with its own pros and cons.  MSG has a good range of these and has employed them to evaluate a number of nano particulate products that are availably commercially from outside the NanoCentral circle of providers.

I information can be obtained by Intertek MSG using the following techniques:
