Electrospray Aerosol Generator 3480

Product Details

The EAG Model 3480 produces high concentrations of monodisperse, nano particles from 2 to 100 nm. The Electrospray pushes a charged liquid solution or suspension through a capillary tube and exerts an electrical field on the liquid at the capillary tip. The electrical field pulls the liquid from the capillary, forming individual droplets. Air and CO₂ mixed with the droplets evaporate the liquid and the remaining particles are neutralized by an ionizer. The EAG is suitable for residue particles from water-soluble solids and liquids, aqueous suspensions and emulsions for various particle materials, lipid droplets and macromolecules. Proteins as small as 3 nm and PSL as large as 200 nm can be aerosolized.
