Particle Shape Analysis of Fiber Particles

Automated image analysis has been developed to provide users with a more accurate measurement of their particles. For many years, particle size analysers have rendered results with the assumption that all measured particles are spherical. However, in many applications, the circularity of particles can affect both performance and flowability in manufacturing. In some cases, for example, measuring surface smoothness can impact how well abrasives perform.
