Powdered Material Whiteness Tester

The powder whiteness tester measures the whiteness value by irradiating powder samples with a standard light source, comparing the intensity of reflected light with that of a standard whiteboard. It is used to detect the whiteness index of powder materials and control product quality in industries such as coatings and plastics.
Selection
Select an instrument with a measurement aperture that matches the powder particle size, considering the sample morphology to adapt a specialized powder sample holder. Verify that the instrument's measurement range covers the whiteness range of the sample to be tested, ensuring compliance with industry testing standards.

High-temperature viscometer measures the flow behavior of powder coatings in the molten state.
This article introduces the use of a high-temperature viscometer to measure the flow behavior of powder coatings in their molten state. Powder coatings need to melt and flow before curing, a process that directly affects the smoothness and performance of the coating.
Hall flowmeter measures the flowability of spray powder
This article introduces how a Hall flowmeter measures the flowability of spray powder. It uses a standard funnel to measure the time required for a certain mass of powder to flow out under gravity—the shorter the time, the better the flowability.
Tap density tester evaluates the accumulation characteristics of sprayed powder.
This article introduces how to use a tap density tester to evaluate the packing characteristics of spray powders. The tap density tester simulates vibration to densely pack the powder and measures the mass per unit volume, thereby obtaining the tap density.
Laser particle size analyzer measures the particle size distribution of spray powder.
Laser particle size analyzers measure the particle size distribution of sprayed powder based on the principle of light scattering, which is critical for coating uniformity and adhesion. During measurement, the powder must be dispersed in a suitable medium to avoid agglomeration, and tests should be repeated to ensure accuracy.
