Why can a microtrack produce results even when multiple samples are mixed?

Unique optical system design, equipped with three lasers, slit-shaped detector structure.

The shape of the microtrack detector is slit-like, extending outward from the center of the scattering angle. In the laser diffraction/scattering method, laser light is irradiated onto particles, and the scattered light containing particle size information is detected by a detector of a certain shape to determine the particle size distribution. However, depending on the shape of the detector, the particle size information will result in signals that are proportional to the square, cube, or fourth power of the particle size. Particle size distribution data is typically expressed on a volume basis proportional to the cube of the particle size, but with commonly used detectors, various corrections must be applied to display volume-based particle size distribution data. With the slit-shaped detector of the microtrack, signals proportional to the cube of the desired particle size can be directly extracted. The significant reason why only the microtrack can provide accurate data on the mixing ratio of samples lies in the difference of this detector. *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.*
