Measurements with the Mütek PCD-04 Particle Charge Detector provide a novel and easy method for characterization of superplasticizers and other additives for cement- or gypsum-based formulations.
The functional properties of cereal products depend on the characteristics and interactions of their components such as starch, proteins, lipids and salts. Specific charges of polyelectrolytes like proteins or gluten in flours provide an indication for their functionality. The Mütek PCD-04 Particle Charge Detector has been applied to measure the surface charge of dispersed particles - various different flours and other raw materials - in aqueous systems.
Since many years, our application laboratory is dedicated to developing special applications for many different industries. Besides its service to measure customers’ sample material it also intends to share its expertise.
