The Inkjet Conference's video: TheIJC 2019: An overview of myths and misconceptions about particle size

Another well received presentation from TheIJC - the world's biggest event dedicated to inkjet engineering and inkjet chemistry. Join us at the next conference on 27-28 October 2020 in Düsseldorf. Book now at http://theijc.com Dr Wolf-Dieter Wagner from Soliton/PSS presents during The Inkjet Conference 2019 “An overview of myths and misconceptions about particle size”. Particle sizing is a relatively common technique employed across a wide range of industrial and pharmaceutical applications. There exists a large number of different techniques for determining particle size, requiring the selection of a technique for any particular sample analysis. Most educational systems spend very little time educating students of the various techniques and their strengths and shortcomings. As a result, techniques chosen for any specific measurement may not be the best technique for characterising a particular product. In fact, may measurements made today are based on methods that are not well suited for the particular application. This presentation will provide an overview of a number of different measurement techniques, compare and contrast them, and point out their strengths and weaknesses. The emphasis will be on clarifying options available to analysists in order to achieve the best possible particle size measurements for a particular application. With the large number of techniques available, there have been many misconceptions fostered over the years regarding the meaning of the data produced by these different methods. A review of reference materials for determining the accuracy of these methods and brief commentary on these reference materials, often referred to as standards will be provided as well, along with some comments differentiating between a standard and a reference material.
