Electrostatic Charge on Microspheres: Measurement Techniques

Electrostatic charge (also known as triboelectric charge) on microparticles and microspheres have been of interest to scientists in chemical, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, drug delivery, displays and other industries for many years. Until recently there were no reliable techniques to measure or quantify electrostatic charge on microparticles... read more

Opaque Polyethylene Microspheres: Applications in Cosmetics and Skin Care
Unique advantage of opaque microspheres in cosmetics is that maximum hiding power is achieved with one invisible and feather-light layer - revolutionizing make-up products. Sphericity and particle size uniformity are responsible for the ball-bearing effect in creams and lotions resulting in luxury feel and silky texture. Exceptional smoothness of spherical microparticles dramatically enhances the tactile experience of a cosmetic product. read more

Orientation of Dual-Functionalized Microspheres in Electromagnetic Field
One particularly interesting and unique feature of these miracle microspheres is their ability to orient themselves in response to electromagnetic field and show a visual response. This is achieved by making spheres both bipolar and bichromal, with dipole precisely aligned with two differently colored hemispheres. read more
