About this manual

The Agilent 7010 Particle Size Analyzer is designed to measure particle size distributions (PSD) in the nanometer to low micrometer range without error. It overcomes limitations of traditional light scattering techniques, particularly when analyzing complex mixtures containing particles of more than one size population.

What's inside

  • Introduction
  • Applications of fine polymeric particles
  • Measurement of reference monodisperse materials
  • Coarse and fine populations mixed
  • Resolution of multimodal distributions
  • Resolution test

Frequently asked questions

What is the measurement accuracy of the Agilent 7010 Particle Size Analyzer compared to manufacturer specifications?

The particle sizes determined by the analyzer consistently agreed within 5% of the manufacturer-specified values and typically within 2%.

What is the relative standard deviation for samples measured five times consecutively?

The relative standard deviation for all tested samples after five consecutive measurements was better than 1.5%.

Can the Agilent 7010 detect fine particles when mixed with a large population of coarse particles?

Yes, the analyzer is able to detect even 9% of fine 92 nm particles in the presence of 91% of 3 um particles.
