General description

Silicon dioxide based microparticles (size: 1 μm) are ideal to identify particle size distribution (PSD) profile of a particle system.
The 1 μm size of the particles is characterized using CPS disc centrifuge DC 24000.

Application

Silicon dioxide beads, 1.0 μm have a wide range of uses from use as a flow agent to electrical and medical applications.
Used for calibration and regular monitoring of particle size analyzers and surface scanning instruments.
Also used to prepare glass substrates with beads for perovskite-based photovoltaic applications.

Features and Benefits

  • suitable for routine instrument calibration checks, testing and corrections
  • particle size calibrated according to NIST and SRM standards
  • available in 5 mL and 10 mL pack sizes as neat samples

Micron-sized particles have primarily been used in microfabricated flow cytometers for calibration purposes and proof-of-concept experiments. With increasing frequency, microparticles are serving as a platform for assays measured in these small analytical devices. Light scattering has been used to measure

This paper explores the particle-level dynamics involved in the capture of gently flowing microparticles on adhesive planar surfaces, governed by electrostatic interactions. The work focuses on conditions which produce sustained microparticle rolling, useful for the development of microfluidic devices which
