LUMiSizer®  -  The All-in-One Dispersion Analyser

tl_files/Banderolen/LUMiSizer.jpg

 

The High-end Dispersion Analyser LUMiSizer® of LUM GmbH is your complete dispersion lab, all in one instrument. The quick characterization of any demixing phenomena, consolidation and the calculation of the velocity distribution in the centrifugal field as well as of particle size distribution make the LUMiSizer the instrument of choice for research, development and QA/QC.

Applying the patented STEP®-Technology the instrument determines demixing processes of dilute or concentrated suspensions/emulsions for up to 12 different samples simultaneously. Even different sample cell types and physical references can be measured at the same time.

The stability testing can be accelerated by up to 4500x compared to traditional test tube tests.

Fast stability ranking and shelf-life determinations of undiluted dispersions in original concentration are done in minutes/hours instead of months/years. The multisample analytical centrifuge is ideally suited for characterization and optimization of dispersion properties. It quantifies particle- particle-interactions, the compessibility of particles, flocs, gels and the elastic behaviour of sediments. The concentration, viscosity, complexity and particle size of a wide range of dispersions are easily analyzed. Many applications in research and development as well as in industry benefit from the LUMiSizer®.
