Particle size distribution

Particle size distribution analysis is one of the services offered by Alfatestlab for the characterisation of powder, suspension and emulsion products.

Real density/ Skeletal Density

Helium Picnometry uses the gas displacement to determine the volume of the sample. The density is calculated using the sample weight, measured on an analytical balance. The instrument measures the […]

Surface area and porosimetry

Samples are commonly prepared by heating them under vacuum or under a gas stream to remove impurities. The samples are then analyzed by measuring the volume of adsorbed gas, for […]

Rheology: viscosity and flow behaviour

In Alfatestlab we provide rheology testing services to support formulation, process development and quality control processes. From very low viscosity liquids up to solid materials, we can offer several properties […]

Powder rheology

Thanks to the FT4 powder rheometer in Alfatestlab, we are able to analyse powder response when simulating different environmental conditions in order to better understand the reason for some behaviours, […]

Thermal Analysis

Temperature range: STA200RV: RT-1000°C DSC7000X: -80°C-500°C or RT-725°C Alfatestlab provides STA (TG-DTA) combined measurements on a wide variety of materials as well as DSC analysis. Thermal analysis can provide a […]
