The Complementarity of Liquid Phase- and Solid Surface
Zeta Potential: Focus on Membrane Characterization

 

Anton Paar Netherlands cordially invites you to a 1-day workshop on the zeta potential analysis of solid samples and liquid dispersions. This workshop is intended for anyone working with solid materials and/or particle suspensions and emulsions, who is interested in characterizing or modifying the surface chemistry to tune surface charge and electrostatic properties at the material-water interface.

The applications of the zeta potential analyses will focus on the characterization of polymer membranes for water treatment, but also include the behavior of biomaterials, medical devices, semiconductors or cosmetic formulations in an aqueous environment.

The workshop will cover the theory and practical aspects of streaming potential and electrophoretic mobility. The theoretical part will be complemented by a hands-on session on SurPASS 3 and Litesizer DLS with the opportunity to run measurements on your samples.
