PARTICLEVER is a laboratory that specialises in measuring particles in the air. Its technology gives the ability to understand and quantify inhalation exposure to complex substances like nanoparticles, nanomaterials, fibres, advanced materials, and mixtures like atmospheric pollution.

Measuring particules has never been so easy!

...PARTICLEVER analyses the samples

Nanoparticles, Fibers, Complex Particles..

Nano-Objects and their Aggregates and Agglomerates (NOAA)

PARTICLEVER technology makes it possible to measure exposure to Nanoparticles, Nanomaterials, and their Aggregates and Agglomerates (NOAA) in all forms: Powders, Fumes, fibres, using:

XRF

X-Ray Fluorescence
.
for metals quantification

SEM+EDS

Scanning Electron Microscopy
with Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy
for particles size distribution and characterisation

TOA

Thermo-Optical Analysis
.
for elemental carbon

PARTICLEVER measures particles emitted by metal powders, including:

    • Titanium Dioxide (TiO2)
    • Amorphous Silica (SiO2)
    • Zinc Oxide (ZnO)
    • Alumina (Al2O3)
    • Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3)
    • Silver (Ag)
    • Cadamium (Cd)
    • Cerium Oxide (CeO2)
Particle Alumina with coating

PARTICLEVER measures fibrous particles, rods or tubes, their aggregates and agglomerates, including:

  • Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs)
  • Cellulose Nanofibrils (CNF) or Nanocrystals (CNC)
  • Carbon Nanofibres (CNFs)
  • Fibrous Plastic Residue
Particle Carbon Nanotubes

PARTICLEVER measures particles containing non-fibrous elemental carbon, including:

  • Carbon Black (C)
  • Soot
  • Combustion Residue
  • Graphite
  • Carbon-Based Composites
Particle Carbon Black

PARTICLEVER measures metal-based particles incidentally emitted which are potentially in nanoparticles form.

  • Cobalt (Co)
  • Arsenic (As)
  • Silver (Ag)
  • Cadmium (Cd)
  • Mercury (Hg)
  • Lead (Pb)
  • Welding Fumers
  • Machining
Particle Non-nano Iron

PARTICLEVER measures Diesel Particles to verify workers’ exposure, or to measure atmospheric pollution.

Particle Combustion Residue

PARTICLEVER measures particles composed of organic material including emissions from:

  • Plastic-Making Processes
  • Biological Materials
  • Spheres
  • Capsules
  • Pollens
Particle Non-Fibrous Organic Material

PARTICLEVER measures particles of lightweight elements like:

  • Beryllium (Be)
  • Lithium (Li)
  • Boron (B)
Particle Boron

DETECT, QUANTIFY particles and EVALUATE the risk in your industry

3-Steps protocol

1- DETECTION/EMISSIVITY

2- EVALUATING

>> Classify different situations between them

>> Highlight all high-risk situations that are a priority

*if an OEL already exists or if you have estimated one
>> Measurements/Samplings (with a PARTICLEVER sampler)

>> Analysis (XRF, SEM+EDS, TOA)

**comparison of results against OEL

Rent the equipment, start your sampling...

...send the samples to our laboratory and get your results!
