Overview & applications
When to use Particle Morphology in an engineering investigation
Particle Morphology helps engineering and research teams investigate particle size and shape distribution, aspect ratio, circularity, and agglomeration, batch-to-batch morphology variation with a lab-ready scope. TESTDOG can help translate an unclear request into the right imaging route, sample preparation notes and reporting requirements.
Use this page as a starting point for deciding whether Particle Morphology is suitable before requesting a quotation.
What this test can help you understand
Aspect ratio, circularity, and agglomeration
Assess aspect ratio, circularity, and agglomeration as part of a lab-ready investigation scope.
Batch-to-batch morphology variation
Assess batch-to-batch morphology variation as part of a lab-ready investigation scope.
Samples & requirements
Suitable samples and what to prepare
Typical sample types
- Powders, granules, catalysts, pigments, battery materials, and mineral particles
Submission requirements
- Reference guidance indicates powder sample quantity around 1-2 g
- Particle-size analysis range is generally micron-scale for this service
- Samples should be dry, representative, and well mixed
- avoid severe agglomeration or moisture unless that state is the target
- Specify dispersion method if known and whether shape, size, circularity, flake percentage, or image examples are required
