“The powder method has gained a new importance in neutron diffraction owing to the general lack of large specimens for single-crystal methods”. With this brief opening sentence of his landmark paper ...

Experiments were conducted to establish a laser diffraction-based method for the determination of lactose powder particle size. This was accomplished using a Bettersizer 2600 equipped with a fully ...

The new method can determine crystal structures underlying experimental data thus far difficult to analyze. A joint research team led by Yuuki Kubo and Shiji Tsuneyuki of the University of Tokyo has ...

Particle size analysis is crucial to quality control and product development in a number of key industries including aerosols, construction, food and beverage, paint and coatings, and pharmaceuticals.

In order to cut, grind and polish softer materials, an abrasive is typically used. It is either a natural or a synthetic mineral, which is applied liberally to shape or finish a workpiece to a ...

X-ray diffraction (XRD) is a powerful non-destructive analytical technique used to evaluate crystalline materials and determine their structural properties. As one of the most widely used ...
