Quartz 10mm Cuvette Particle Size Sample Cell, 3.5ml, Molded 83, Four-Way Light, PTFE Cap, Pack of Two, C104CE30

Description

The C104CE30 is a precision quartz particle size sample cell engineered for dynamic light scattering (DLS) and particle analysis. Featuring a 10 mm optical path, 3.5 ml internal volume, and Four-Way Light optical configuration, this cuvette enables scattered-light detection from multiple angles — essential for accurate particle sizing. The Molded 83 fabrication delivers >83% transmittance across 190–2500 nm, while the included PTFE cap prevents dust contamination and solvent evaporation during measurement. Supplied as Pack of Two.

Technical Specifications — Particle Size Sample Cell

Instrument Compatibility

This 10 mm Four-Way Light quartz cuvette is compatible with a wide range of particle size analyzers and DLS instruments, including Malvern Zetasizer series, Brookhaven NanoBrook, Microtrac Nanotrac, Anton Paar Litesizer, Horiba SZ-100, Bettersize NanoPlus, and other instruments accepting 12 × 12 mm square cuvettes with four polished windows.

Applications

Why Four-Way Light?

Unlike standard two-way cuvettes, the C104CE30 features four optically polished faces, enabling scattered-light collection from multiple angles. This is critical for DLS and particle sizing, where detectors are positioned at 90° or 173° (backscatter) relative to the incident laser beam. The four-window design ensures minimal refraction artifacts and maximum signal-to-noise ratio across all detection geometries.

Why Molded 83?

The Molded 83 fabrication method (learn more) produces cuvettes with >83% transmittance across 190–2500 nm, offering the highest optical quality in this product line. This makes the C104CE30 especially suited for measurements requiring deep-UV excitation or demanding low-scatter applications where background noise must be minimized.
