Sample’s requirements:
Wet and dry samples within the particle size of 0.021 to 704 microns are acceptable. Samples will need to be wetted first using suitable wetting agents such as water and dispersant. Dispersion using ultrasonic before analysis maybe needed to be done for samples that are agglomerated. Samples in suspension form are also accepted for this analysis.
