If you’ve got particle size on your mind this January, you’re not alone! And if you’re considering measuring it with the Mastersizer 3000, you’re also in good company 😎 Scientists, researchers, and quality control professionals all tell us that this tool has revolutionized their particle sizing. How? Well, partly thanks to its reliable, robust measurements – across multiple applications 🙌 But these aren’t the only things setting the Mastersizer 3000 apart… Curious? Find all the reasons to ‘Think Particle Size, Choose Mastersizer’ in our whitepaper! #MalvernPanalytical #ParticleSizing #Mastersizer3000 #AdvancedManufacturing

ASAP Paper of today: "Unveiling the Stability of Encapsulated Pt Catalysts Using Nanocrystals and Atomic Layer Deposition" Saw the talk on this paper last year at the North American Catalysis conference in Providence and I was very excited! Covering your active particles with an ALD layer to prevent sintering helps a lot. Actually, a pretty straigth forward idea but not that easy to craft. Matteo Cargnello and Stacy Bent show how to do it in their new JACS paper (https://lnkd.in/dX539SNz). Keep posted, I got some data myself extending this picutre. #ASAPpaper, #catalysis

𝗣𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗹𝗲 𝘀𝗶𝘇𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 📈 It is quite common practice to take a sample at certain intervals, e.g. once per shift, and have the #ParticleSize determined in the lab.  ❓ have you ever wondered how big the sampling error is? ❓ have you ever wondered what could happen in the time between two samples? 🤔 The #inline monitoring of particle size provides #realtime information and #trending of particle size – more representative and continuously. Thanks to the inline particle size analyzer #DYNAsize our customers gain better control of #sieving processes or #grinders and optimize their production. 💡 ▶ The screenshot shows one example – a 24 hour trending of a sieve outlet. Different percentiles, d50 and d90 on display.  You want to learn more? Contact us or visit:  https://lnkd.in/eVnuq2s6

ASAP Paper of the day from the great Charlie Campbell! "Predicting Adhesion Energies of Metal Nanoparticles to Support Surfaces, Which Determines Metal Chemical Potential versus Particle Size and Thus Catalyst Performance" The work from Charlie Campbell is truely inspiring. This new paper reveiles a linear correlation of the adhesion energy of metal nanoparticles on oxide supprts to their oxophilicity. A very simple descriptor! And we like simple descriptors.

**Calibration of Karl Fischer Titrator** P.S. Have you ever used a Karl Fischer titrator in your lab work? What were your experiences with it? Share your thoughts or any tips you have for getting the most accurate results!

Argento Scientific's new VertiRack™ provides you with a worry-free system to secure glass columns.   Packed and tested columns represent thousands of dollars, even tens of thousands of dollars, in sunk costs: costs to buy the resins and glass hardware plus time to pack and test the columns. That’s why columns are always stored securely upright against a robust frame to avoid risk of damage…right?    Not really.   Despite their value, columns are often stored on rickety stands made for undergraduate chemistry labs. Or columns are stowed horizontally in drawers where they can roll into each other. Good news, now there’s a better way! Find out more - https://lnkd.in/embtAbAC
