With an extended dynamic range that spans 0.1 to 3,500 microns, the Mastersizer 3000 laser-diffraction particle-size analyzer delivers precise wet and dry measurements. The design of the new optical core results in a high-performance device with a small footprint. Sample-dispersion accessories include an entirely novel dry-powder dispersion unit. Friendly and intuitive software drives the system, bringing operator-independent analysis with data generation tailored to individual user’s needs. — Malvern Instruments Ltd., Malvern, U.K.
