Particle measurement aids paint performance
Instrument performs zeta potential and particle size measurement in developing the use of nanosized ceramic particles to enhance scratch resistance for automotive lacquers.
Testing will be carried out by LGC scientists and technicians skilled in the application of advanced particle sizing techniques.
Enquiries about contract services and the initiation of projects will continue to be handled in the first instance by Malvern's application specialists.
LGC is an academic research department linked to the French national research organisation CNRS and to two local Universities (Institut National Polytechnique de Toulouse and Universite Paul Sabatier).
More than 230 researchers and students conduct projects covering most aspects of modern chemical engineering, including particle and interfacial engineering.
Commenting on the new relationship, Jane Bishop, Malvern's commercial director, said: "We are delighted to welcome LGC as a partner as Malvern expands its provision of contract services in France.
In addition to bringing extensive experience and expertise in particle characterization, LGC's university connections will help inform our future work to ensure that we offer comprehensive testing services appropriate to the needs of both commercial and academic organisations." Dr Joel Bertrand, head of the LGC department said: "Our researchers and technicians have developed considerable expertise, over a long period, in the characterization of dispersed media, mostly using Malvern equipment.
We believe that this agreement will help us to apply this expertise and extend it to new techniques. Request free introductory details about products from Malvern Instruments ...
In addition, we very much expect that via new contacts with the client companies, we will have new opportunities to develop our research in process engineering.".
