DLS-8000 series

DLS-8000 is a product of particle evaluation which measures even the extremely weak scattering of nanoparticles adopting liquid-immersion type.  With a dynamic light scattering(DLS) method, you can get particle size and particle size distribution. Besides, absolute molecular weight, a radius of gyration, and the second viral coefficient can be measured by static light scattering(SLS) method.

 Features  
  • Measures particle size and particle-size distribution based on the dynamic light-scattering method, and absolute molecular weight, radius of gyration, and the second virial coefficient based on the static light-scattering method

  • He-Ne laser, Ar laser, double laser(He-Ne, Ar) models are available

  • Adopts a liquid-immersion optical system, supporting high precision measurement for extremely weak scattering of nano order particles

  • Supports multimode analysis of concentrated polymer solutions, using a correlator providing up to 4,096 channels

  • Supports gel-state analysis in combination with the optional gel rotation cell
