At Instrumat, we recently tested Size Sure, the powerful new feature in Malvern Panalytical’s Mastersizer system, and the results exceeded our expectations. Integrated into the Adaptive Diffraction technology, Size Sure brings a new level of clarity and reliability to laser diffraction particle size analysis.
Smarter Data, Confident Results
Traditional laser diffraction systems average all measurements, potentially hiding brief but significant events. Size Sure, working within Adaptive Diffraction, captures data at 10 kHz and separates what’s consistently present from rare, transient phenomena—like bubbles, dust, or contaminants.
In our application laboratory, this meant clearer insights, fewer repeat measurements, and more trust in every result.
What Size Sure Delivers
- Confidence – Results reflect your actual sample, not temporary noise.
- Simplicity – No extra setup—just switch it on.
- Efficiency – Avoid unnecessary reruns and preserve valuable sample.
- Insight – Separate PSDs for steady-state and transient components.
You also get detailed indicators like Transient Rate and Proportion Transient, helping you understand sample stability at a glance. And for comparison, a classic PSD is always available.
Instrumat’s Verdict
Our experience with Mastersizer and Size Sure has shown us just how much Adaptive Diffraction can enhance particle sizing workflows. It’s an ideal tool for anyone who values precision, transparency, and efficient use of time and material.
