The Morphologi G3-ID programme from Malvern introduces the benefits of combining automated particle analysis on Malvern's G3 system with chemical identification provided by Raman spectroscopy.
The early-access programme is designed to enable potential users to find out more about the technology and how it may help with their specific applications.
Suitable for particles sized between 0.5um and 10mm, the Morphologi G3-ID enables samples that are hard to tackle to be characterised in a few simple steps.
Applications include: determining the chemical composition of powder blends and granules; measuring the API particle distribution of one component in a mix; chemical identification of foreign particle contaminants; and ascertaining whether a particle contains single or multiple chemical components.
The fully automated, SOP-driven measurement process on the Morphologi G3-ID involves simply imaging a large area, classifying particles on size and shape parameters, acquiring Raman spectra of targeted particles and further classifying based on chemistry.
The ability to create chemically specific particle size distributions allows exploration of the relationship between particle morphology and particle identification.
During this initial period the Morphologi G3-ID will be available for purchase in specific areas of Europe and the US only.
There is also the potential to upgrade from existing Morphologi systems.
