VASCO KIN: In-situ, Real-Time Contactless Particle Size Analyzer
- Non-invasive particle size and distribution measurements in real time
- Contactless monitoring in any transparent container or reactor
- Kinetic nanoparticle analysis with high temporal resolution
- Highly concentrated and/or opaque samples can be measured
VASCO KIN™ – A time-resolved, in-situ DLS analyzer with remote optical head, designed for real-time monitoring of nanoparticle synthesis, stability, and aggregation dynamics. Supports sample volumes down to a few microliters — ideal for research, formulation development, and kinetic studies. This system detects fluctuations in light scattering caused by Brownian motion of particles, converting this information into instantaneous hydrodynamic diameter values.
Key Features & Benefits:

Faster In Situ, Contactless Particle Size Measurement
VASCO KIN enables direct particle size and distribution measurement in transparent vessels - no need to extract, transfer, or batch samples. This speeds up workflows and eliminates contamination risk.

Intuitive Instrument Coupling
Easily combine VASCO KIN with other instruments or systems. Its optical head can analyze samples in syringes, sealed vials, reactors, and more, offering unmatched adaptability.

Flexibility with a Variety of Optical Heads
Measure particle sizes from 0.5 nm to 10 µm in both organic and aqueous environments. Different optical head options support in situ, inline, and cuvette-based measurements, even at concentrations up to 40% wt.

Time-Resolved, Real-Time Particle Analysis
Capture detailed kinetics with a new correlogram every 200 ms. Real-time 2D color mapping offers deep insight into processes such as nanoparticle growth, agglomeration, or dispersion stability.

Easy and Reliable Inline Monitoring
VASCO KIN integrates seamlessly into inline or online setups for continuous flow environments. This supports higher throughput, process consistency, and improved quality control.
