At its very most basic, laser diffraction is about the relationship between particle size and the angle and intensity of scattered light. Light scatters more intensely and at smaller angles off of large particles than small particles.
We’ve put together some commonly asked questions to give you more information about Fourier Transform Near-Infrared (FT-NIR) spectroscopy. Learn more about the benefits of FT-NIR spectroscopy and how it can help you in your daily QC work.
Date: 7th September 2021 Time: 10.30 am-11.45 am (Malaysia Time) Horiba has recently launched a new imaging accessory (Imaging Unit LY-9610) which allows real-time observation, particle image acquisition, and assessment of the particles in the wet circulation system. It is small and integrated into the main unit – Laser Diffraction Particle Size Analyzer- Partica LA-960V2 without…
Date: 7th September 2021 Time: 10.00 pm-11.00 pm (Malaysia Time) Pharma and biopharma manufacturing are under constant pressure to improve efficiency, increase productivity and reduce costs while still maintaining product quality. Molecular spectroscopy (Fourier transform infrared [FTIR], near-infrared [NIR], and Raman) are versatile, non-destructive, and green techniques that enable rapid analysis of raw…
Here is a list of common test methods used to evaluate plastics. They tell you how to check tensile and flexural properties, stiffness, impact, hardness, flammability, etc. Where applicable, ASTM specs are given as sources for more detailed information.
Microplastics have been found in our oceans, drinking water, and food supply brought about by pollution and manufacturing practices. These particulates can be smaller than the eye can see, and their impact on our environment and our health need to be studied.
Date: 18th August 2021 Time: 08.00 am-09.00 am (Malaysia Time) Introduction to Melt Flow Indexer and working principle Why do measure Melt Flow Rate and how does it improves the manufacturing process Discuss the different types of test standards, methods & results How to get accurate, repeatable MFI test results Live Q&A Session to interact…
When we talk about “Dynamic Contact Angle” (DCA), there are two quite different subjects that may be addressed:
– Time-Dependent Contact Angle (tDCA)
– Motion-Dependent Contact Angle (mDCA)
How Does Melt Flow Indexer Works? It heats and compresses thermo-softening resin, then measures resin extrusion rate through an orifice, under carefully carefully controlled conditions such as..
Date: 16th June 2021 Time: 03.00pm-04.00pm (Malaysia Time) Formulating pharmaceuticals often involves balancing almost contradictory requirements, eg. a cream should not be too low in viscosity, but still spread well; nasal sprays should atomize fully, but at the same time remain in situ after application; injectable drugs need to be low enough in viscosity…
