Detecting the Mass of Pigment Particles: Towards a Universal Size Standard
May 2025
By By Jörg Wieder, Franz Friebel, femtoG AG, and Kingsley Reavell, Cambustion Ltd.
We present a novel approach that introduces mass as a fundamental metric for characterizing the size and structure of pigments and nanoparticles. This offers the potential to establish a new standard for particle size determination. Leveraging measurement techniques developed in aerosol sciences, we apply them to uniquely analyze pigment particles in an application-oriented manner.
