Particle Detection in Liquids with HV or HMW

Abstract

High viscosity and high molecular weight liquids can scatter laser light, due to the molecules that comprise the chemical. This can interfere with light scattered off particles when using a laser optical particle counter, creating false-positive counts. A method is described to measure high viscosity or high molecular weight liquids using a syringe sampling system and LiQuilaz particle sensor.
