NanoSTAR - Enter the Universe of Nanostructure Analysis
The new NanoSTAR, the innovative small angle X-ray scattering system is the ideal tool to investigate precipitants in bulk materials and macromolecules in e.g. solutions with a size in the order of 10 to 1000 Angstroem.
Features:
Versatile experimental platform for nanostructure analysis due to flexible sample handling and adjustable beam path conditions.
Wide range of applications for analysis of polymers, biological materials, fibres, metals, nanopowders, complex fluids, etc.
Analysis of sizes, size distributions, shapes and orientation distributions in liquids, powders or bulk samples.
Efficient solution for scientists as well as researchers requiring fully automated measurements.
- All in one instrument :nanostructure analysis by means of Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS);
- nanostructure mapping with scanning SAXS / X-ray radiography;
- molecular structure determination by Wide Angle X-rayScattering (WAXS).
The NanoSTAR is a joint project of: Bruker AXS, Institute of Chemistry at the University of Aarhus in Denmark, Max Planck Institute of Colloids and Interfaces, Department of Biomaterials in Potsdam, Germany and Material Competence Centre Leoben in Austria. |

Use of the new Spinning Drop Tensiometer SITE100 for characterization of critical micelle concentrations.
The stability of emulsions is to a large extent determined by interfacial properties of the participating phases, and their storage stability can be optimized by the use of emulsifiers to lower the interfacial tension. This is made possible by the fact that the reduction in the interfacial tension lowers the driving force for separating the oil and water phases. The optimum adjustment of the necessary amount at a particular temperature depends on the diffusion rate at the interfacial boundary and the critical micelle concentration, among other things.
The Washburn "C" Factor for characterization of porous coatings.
Porous coatings find application in a wide variety of industrial, military, and medical applications. For example, porous photo and electro catalytic coatings are used in applications ranging from chromate production to cyanide destruction - and are also being explored for use in air and water treatment. In the medical field, porous coatings are used on the surface of replacement joints to promote a stable bone-implant interface by providing support for both ingrowth and ongrowth. Porous coatings are also widely used to support various reagents for blood and plasma analysis on diagnostic strips and slides. |

Thermo Electron Establishes Customer Demonstration Centers at Key Locations Around the World
Newest Center Opens Near Paris, France
WALTHAM, Mass., Sept. 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- As part of its strategy to provide comprehensive solutions based on its broad line of analytical instruments, scientific equipment, software, and services, Thermo Electron Corporation (NYSE: TMO) has established customer demonstration centers in major cities worldwide. The newest facility, located just south of Paris in Les Ulis, France, opened its doors to customers today.
Similar centers opened earlier this year in Yokohama, Japan and Frankfurt, Germany. Each features a complete laboratory equipped with Thermo's advanced chromatography, mass spectrometry, and spectroscopy product lines; sample preparation and storage equipment; and laboratory informatics software.
"For the first time, our customers can visit one of these centers and see how completely Thermo's products can be integrated to equip their lab, from preparing and analyzing samples to managing data," said Marijn E. Dekkers, president and chief executive officer of Thermo Electron. "These centers not only allow us to display the breadth of our offerings, but also to create a single point of contact for our customers. While the integration of our product lines has helped us to operate more efficiently, just as important, it allows Thermo to be seen as a very large player in the instrumentation marketplace. These demonstration centers are another example of Thermo's efforts to present one face to our customer base using the single Thermo brand."
As part of its commercial integration process in the past year, Thermo also combined sales and marketing offices into single facilities in Madrid, Spain; Milan, Italy; Beijing, China; Breda, The Netherlands; and Helsinki, Finland.
A world leader in high-tech instruments, Thermo Electron Corporation helps life science, laboratory, and industrial customers advance scientific knowledge, enable drug discovery, improve manufacturing processes, and protect people and the environment with instruments, scientific equipment and integrated software solutions. Based in Waltham, Massachusetts, Thermo Electron has revenues of more than $2 billion, and employs approximately 10,000 people in 30 countries worldwide. For more information, visit www.thermo.com. |
