Workshop: Advanced Analytical Tools for the Study of Nanoscale Surface Interactions

May 26-28, 2025

Brisbane    Sydney   Melbourne

You are invited to attend – Free to Register

Discover key insights to develop high performance solids, liquids, foams and understand how extreme conditions can affect material performance.

At this workshop we will discuss the principles of liquid surface tension, surface energy, contact angle measurement and the technical aspects of the instruments. Join us to learn more about these versatile technologies and the application areas where they can be used. Talks will be followed by live demonstrations with the opportunity for you to discuss your personal applications and challenges.

The following technologies will be outlined, together with their most suitable applications:

KRÜSS DSA25 Drop Shape Analyser
KRÜSS MSA One-Click SFE

Guest speaker: This workshop is an excellent opportunity to meet application specialist Dr Fiona Mary Antony from KRÜSS GmbH, a global leader in surface science solutions. Fiona will also present a talk at Australian Coatings Show, 29-30 May.

Workshop: Combining High-Resolution Particle Size and Shape with Compositional Insights!

May 2025 – To be confirmed – please register your interest to receive updates 

Melbourne    Canberra   Sydney    Brisbane

You are invited to attend – Free to Register – Discover the Future of Materials Analysis

Key to developing and manufacturing high quality materials with the required performance is understanding the relationship between material structure and material properties. From metals and polymers to composites and ceramics, monitoring the particle size and shape is important to ensure the powder supply is consistent and meets QC specifications. It also plays a vital role when investigating novel alloys or composites or developing a new AM process.

This workshop will provide a series of short talks and live demonstrations of three key instruments essential for powder characterisation*:

  • Morphologi 4 automated imaging system uses a digital camera to capture high-quality 2D images of dispersed particles, and provides particle-specific size and shape information
  • Mastersizer 3000+ uses laser diffraction to measure particle size distribution
  • Phenom XL Desktop Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) offers automated SEM imaging and analyses with energy-dispersive X-ray (EDS) spectroscopy for elemental composition

*Bring your own samples for analysis

Participation is free of charge however it is essential to register.

Venues/ Duration:

You may select to attend either the morning and afternoon session (9am-12pm or 1-4pm) which is identical.
