ICP-AES: Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy :

This instrument is used to estimate the concentration of an element/s within a sample.

Inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES), is an analytical technique used for the detection of trace metals. It is a type of emission spectroscopy that uses the inductively coupled plasma to produce excited atoms and ions that emit electromagnetic radiation at wavelengths characteristic of a particular element. The intensity of this emission is indicative of the concentration of the element within the sample.

Laser Diffraction Particle size analyzer :

Accurate Particle size measurement range from 0.4 to 2000 micrometers

The LS 13 320 SW is one of the most versatile and sophisticated laser diffraction particle size analyzers available today. This instrument offers the highest resolution, reproducibility and unsurpassed accuracy. Its state-of-the-art, laser-based technology permits analysis of particles without the risk of missing either the largest or the smallest particles in a sample.
