Turbiscan™:

the reference for dispersion stability

Physical stability and shelf life are key parameters in the development of concentrated liquid dispersions.

TURBISCAN™: THE CONCEPT

Turbiscan™ technology (Multiple Light Scattering) consists in measuring the Backscattering and Transmission intensities versus the sample height in order to detect particle size change (coalescence, flocculation) and phase separation (sedimentation, creaming)

Thanks to the Turbiscan Stability Index (TSI), determination of the shelf-life and stability of formulated products has never been easier! It just takes one click to rank and compare all your samples.


STABLE

UNSTABLE: SIZE CHANGE

UNSTABLE: PHASE SEPARATION

KEY FIGURES

• Optical detection up to 50 times faster than the naked eye

• Thermal acceleration up to 200 times faster than room temperature

• More than 75% marketshare on the physical stability market

• More than 140 worldwide patents using the instrument

• More than 1000 academic publications using the instrument

MAIN ADVANTAGES

• Identification and quantification of size and concentration changes

• Works on concentrated media :
  up to 95% v/v

• No dilution required

• Works in a wide range of sizes: from 5nm to 1 mm

Formulation of liquid dispersions (emulsion, suspension, foam) is becoming more and more complex in order to provide the best end use properties in the shortest development time.

One of the key parameters in the development of these inherently unstable products is the physical stability and shelf life.

The Turbiscan™ technology was introduced more than 15 years ago to analyse quickly and accurately the stability of concentrated dispersions such as emulsions, suspensions and foams.

Today more than 1500 R&D labs all over the world use the Turbiscan™ technology .
