Accusizer 780 Particle Size Analysis and oversize particle counting of powder coatings and paint suspensions from 0.5 to 5,000 microns
Turbiscan MA Stability of paint dispersions and suspensions - Samples are tested over time to determine if they are stable or unstable.  If they are unstable, the reason for the instability can be determined, i.e. sedimentation, creaming, particle size increase, particle size increase then sedimentation, etc.  In addition, stability parameters can be calculated such as sedimentation rate, mean particle size, rate of change in mean size, etc.
Turbiscan On-Line Continuous monitoring of paint mixing processes - The Turbiscan On-Line system is ideal for determining the endpoint of a mixing process or for monitoring a continuous process for changes or upsets. The system measures mean particle size on concentrated samples by multiple light scattering.  A measurement is made every 0.1 seconds in a flow through cell. No sample preparation is required. Results are displayed on user programmable trend lines.
