Introduction
The Mastersizer and its accessories have be manufactured from materials that are
considered to give the widest protection from chemical attack. However, it is
important to check that any sample or dispersant you may use is chemically
compatible with the materials that they will come in contact with the system.
This appendix will list all materials that come in contact with the sample and
dispersant in the normal operation of the optical unit only. The sample and
dispersant mostly come in contact with the sample accessories and the cells. See
the accessory manuals of the accessories you have to check for chemical
compatibility.
