Delft Solids Solutions is a laboratory for qualitative and quantitative analysis of particle size distribution. Among more modern techniques, conventional techniques such as sieve analysis are available.

In sieve
analysis a powder is separated into specified size fractions. Both mechanical
sieving and sonic
sifter are available.
The separation range is from 37 µm to 10 mm. The sieve
analysis measurements are performed on ATM,
Retsch or Stork
Veco sieves. The results of sieve
analysis are given in sieve fractions and cumulative mass distribution.
Among more modern techniques, the conventional techniques such as gravitational
sedimentation and sieve
analysis are available. Soil samples are measured with the sedigraph from
micromeritics. sieve
analysis is made by retsch. The stokes sedimentation gives the settling
rate thus the sedimentation diameter.
Sieving with retsch sieve
analysis is an old technique. The stokes sedimentation uses the settling
rate giving the sedimentation diameter. In this way the size distribution can
be compared to sieving. The particle
size distribution and particle size analysis is based on measurement of
the dispersion and also sieve
analysis. By using the retsch sieve
analysis with the proper mesh size a good size distribution is obtained.
With sieving used as presieving on the sonic sifter a powder can be divided
into a fraction. this particle size fraction is less sensitive for segregation
and helps for good sample preparation.

Sieve analysis is one of the most fundamental methods for determining particle size. The sieve analysis is a method that involves passing the material being sized through openings of a particular standard size in a screen. The particle-size distribution is then reported as the weight percentage retained on each of a series of standard sieves of decreasing size and the percentage passed of the finest size.
