Particle Size Analysis

Particle (or particle) size is a concept used to compare solid, liquid and gas sizes of materials. This expression can be applied to any of the following: ecological particles, colloidal particles, or particles of granular material. A spherical object can be described quantitatively and unequivocally by its diameter. However, the particle size of an aspherical object is based on volume, area, and weight.

Particle size analysis is done to determine the dimensional properties of the particles. In this regard, particle size analysis is needed in many engineering and industrial fields such as ceramics, sand, cement, clay, powder metallurgy, food, cosmetics, pharmacology, paint and floor mechanics.

Particle size has a significant effect on corrosion. Grain or particle refining is one of the techniques known to improve the wear resistance and strength of materials. The applied process can change both the surface and bulk of the materials. In this way, there are changes in the density of grain boundaries as well as residual stress and orientation. These changes in the surface have effects on the electrochemical behavior, which eventually leads to the risk of corrosion.

With particle size analysis, the physical and chemical properties of materials are understood. Thus, current strength, solid reactivity and other chemical reactions can be controlled, as can be found in industries producing products such as cosmetics and toners.

Particle size is one of the main characteristics of powder materials. The particle size parameter is key in determining the reactions of cement in water, the strength and extent of coatings, the capacity of lithium batteries, the degradation rate of pharmaceuticals, the filtering efficiency of filters, the magnetic permeability and coercivity of magnetic materials, the effectiveness and residues of pesticides, atmospheric and environmental pollution, and similar factors.

Particle sizing is a fundamental and important process in the production, application and research of powder materials. Application of particle size distribution equipment plays a very important role in these fields, especially laser particle analyzer is widely used and demanded. These devices are high-performance particle size testers that meet international standards. Particle size analyzers are widely used in many industries for particle size analysis of different powders.
