What Are Some Techniques to Measure Agglomeration?
Various techniques can be used to measure and analyze agglomeration: 1. Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS): Measures the size distribution of nanoparticles in suspension. 2. Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM): Provides high-resolution images to observe the morphology and extent of agglomeration. 3. X-ray Diffraction (XRD): Can provide information about the crystalline structure and size of nanoparticle agglomerates. 4. Zeta Potential: Indicates the surface charge of nanoparticles, which can correlate with their tendency to agglomerate.
