Unique modules for particle shape characterization
Let XSACT Pro guide you effortlessly from raw data to insightful results with minimal user input. Harness the power of AI to identify the most probable particle shapes in your sample, saving time and ensuring accuracy. Dive deeper into the analysis using the model-fitting option, which extracts essential structural parameters to provide a comprehensive view of your sample.
Model fitting
Extract meaningful structural parameters of the sample being studied by comparing the observed data with simulated scattering patterns from both shapedependent (e.g., spheres, cylinders, ellipsoids) and shape-independent models. The modeling can also account for interparticle interactions, polydisperse systems, and mixtures.
AI-powered classification
Employ machine learning algorithms* to classify and identify particle shapes based solely on their scattering profiles, without requiring prior knowledge.
*Patented in the EU, patent-pending in the USA, Japan and China
