<strong>Zeta</strong> potential<br />

unstable? / stable?<br />

Particles in solution are surrounded by an<br />

Electrical Double Layer (EDL) that characterizes<br />

particle-particle interaction. It fully determines<br />

the formulation stability. The measurement of<br />

<strong>Zeta</strong> potential is directly related to particle<br />

charge environment and then inform about<br />

dispersion stability. It is widely use for chemical<br />

synthesis, particle functionalization…etc.<br />

Measurement cell: simple, robust, artefact free<br />

Simple: The dip cell design allows<br />

simple sample injection and prevent<br />

bubble formation. It is compliant with<br />

standard cuvette cell for multiple<br />

analysis benchmarking. Its design<br />

makes it fully compatible with organic<br />

solvent<br />

Robust: The innovative vitreous carbon electrode provides<br />

long life and stability to the electrodes that can be easily<br />

cleaned by standard process like sonication or acid-base<br />

washing.<br />

dip cell = no electro-osmosis<br />

Artefact free: <strong>Zeta</strong> potential is directly related to electrokinetic phenoma like<br />

electrophoretic mobility. The dip cell electrodes design prevents electro-osmosis<br />

during measurement giving accurate results without « mysterious » software<br />

correction.


Robust & easy to handle technology led to its best performance:<br />

10 times more resolution than usual correlation technology<br />

No electro-osmosis<br />

In-field proven technology (LDE)<br />

New & unique electrode material for long life material.<br />

Easy to use measurement cuvettes<br />

Compatible with organic solvents and high-pH suspensions<br />

<strong>High</strong> quality data for accurate and repeatable zeta potential analysis and interpretation.<br />

Easy to use and intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) software.<br />

<strong>High</strong> resolution measurement<br />

WALLIS-ζ is a high resolution <strong>Zeta</strong><br />

potential analyzer. Using dedicated<br />

data acquisition and analysis, it<br />

provides the following unique high<br />

resolution features:<br />

Electrophoretic mobility up to<br />

10 -10 m²/V.s resolution<br />

<strong>Zeta</strong> potential up to 0,1 mV<br />

resolution (in water)<br />

<strong>Zeta</strong> potential<br />

<strong>Zeta</strong> potential<br />

Intuitive GUI software<br />

10 times higher resolution<br />

<strong>High</strong> performances for<br />

advanced measurements<br />

<strong>High</strong> resolution of <strong>Wallis</strong> allow high<br />

quality measurement for:<br />

‣ Precise measurement of IEP<br />

‣ Accurate functionnalization of<br />

colloid<br />

‣ Repeatability of particles synthesis<br />

‣ Advanced particles stability analysis
