In-process particle sizing from Xoptix can dramatically reduce energy costs as milling and size reduction machinery can be optimized, with real-time particle size analysis. Subtle changes to classifier speed, or product feed can be seen instantly, with particle size distribution used as an indicator to achieve the required specification without wasting electricity by over milling.
The Oxygen Flask Combustion Unit from Exeter Analytical is designed for preparation of samples for single and mixed elemental analysis of chlorine, bromine, iodine, sulphur and phosphorus content.
The method involves using a new electrolytic solvent that ensures more lithium is available for current generation.
In a well received lecture at the American Filtration Society’s Fall Conference (5-8 October 2015), Dr Graham Rideal, CEO of standards company Whitehouse Scientific, introduced an audience of industry filtration te...
PI (Physik Instrumente) L.P., a leading developer and manufacturer of precision motion systems and solutions, recently released the A-141 miniature air bearing linear positioner, the newest member of the frictionless PIglide family of air bearing stages.
DataApex announced the release of a control driver for the Microsaic 4000 MiD mass detector. This new control driver expands the portfolio of instruments managed by a single point control software platform: Clarity
A novel method that uses an iron-containing dye to capture sunlight with 100% efficiency has been developed. Previously, this had only been achieved using ruthenium dyes which are expensive and toxic.

A new 'design rule' that faciliates the synthesis of synthetic protein analogues, called peptide nanosheets, has been discovered. The peptide nanosheets display a flatness that is not observed in nature. It is hoped that exploitation of this new rule will lead to the synthesis of novel biomimetic structures.
