Using DLS (Dynamic Light Scattering) technology, the Zetasizer can characterise the size distributions of suspensions between a few nanometres and 1?m.

The characterisation of nanomaterials is a task of vital importance in the research field of our Institute, but industrial sectors are increasingly investing in this type of materials.

Currently, companies from sectors as diverse as pharmaceuticals, pigments and paints, biomaterials, water purification and polymers, to name but a few, are users of our service.

The equipment also allows the characterisation of the Zeta Potential of the suspensions under study, providing relevant information about the stability of the suspensions depending on different parameters (pH, concentration, ionic strength of the medium...). The equipment also has the option of working in static mode (SLS), which makes it possible to determine the molecular weight of polymers, macromolecules and proteins.
