4. Illustrative powder characterization results

To illustrate the results obtained for powders, we have chosen the example of a suspension of alumina particles .

These particles are suspended in demineralized batch water at a volume concentration of Φ = 5%. They are assimilated to Mie-type diffusers. The optical parameters corresponding to these particles are calculated routinely during analysis via Monte-Carlo type simulations. The sampling frequency, identical to that used for acquisition, is set at 10 MHz.

We compared the results obtained with our technology with those obtained using microscopy and a conventional light-scattering...
