- Extremely fine droplets at a micro- and nano- scale with remarkably low energy requirements.
- Compatible with any liquid and gas.
- Droplet sizes can be adjusted from below one micron to several hundred microns. This size is easily tunable through the control of external functional parameters.
- Broad range of liquid flow rates. It can vary up to two orders of magnitude in a single nebulizer.
- Excellent mixture of phases, gas and liquid, with an internal recirculation zone. Suitable for applications requiring full mixing of both phases in order to increase the contact surface, to match temperatures, and so on (i.e., fuel injection).
- No moving parts, which ensures robust and reliable performance.
- Low coalescence of droplets.
- The simple geometry involved facilitates easy miniaturization and multiplexing.
The Flow Blurring nebulization technology employed in the desing and manufacture of ICP nebulizers affords important advantages that you will benefit from when operating a OneNeb Nebulizer in your ICP equipment:
- Fine, monodisperse and reproducible aerosols.
- Ability to control the aerosol characteristics according to the operating conditions (liquid uptake and gas pressure).
- Aerosol characteristics can be predicted using relatively simple but accurate mathematical models.
- Superior analytical performance compared with other pneumatic nebulizers.
- Flow Blurring® is purely mechanical technology and is consequently compatible with any kind of liquid or gas. OneNeb Nebulizers can be manufactured using virtually any combination of suitable polymers for any specific application.
- The contact between the liquid aerosol and outlet is highly reduced by Flow Blurring. This prevents, or at least significantly reduces, the possibility of generating solid deposit growth nuclei.
