Why particle characterisation is important in chemical industries

Particle characterisation is a crucial process in the automotive industry that involves the analysis and understanding of the properties and behaviour of particles present in various automotive components. These particles can be found in engine lubricants, brake pads, fuel, and many other materials used in cars.

By characterising these particles, engineers can gain valuable insights into their size, shape, composition, and distribution. This information helps them in designing and developing more efficient and reliable automotive parts. For example, understanding the particle size distribution in engine lubricants can help engineers create lubricants that provide better protection and reduce friction, leading to improved engine performance and fuel efficiency. Particle characterisation also plays a vital role in ensuring the safety of automotive components. By analysing the particles in brake pads, engineers can determine their wear rate and composition, helping them develop brake pads that offer optimal stopping power and durability. Overall, particle characterisation in the automotive industry is a crucial science that enables engineers to create better-performing and safer automotive components, resulting in a smoother driving experience for all.
