29. Advantages and disadvantages of the above methods
  -Microscope Imaging
A: simple, direct test procedure, shape analysis available
D: long test cycle, relatively poor representation, testing of ultra fine particles not possible

-Sieve Analysis
A:simple, direct test procedure, low cost
D:samples smaller than 40um can not be tested; test results are subject to deformation of sieve meshes

-Sedimentation
A:low price, continuous operation, high degree of accuracy and repeatability, relatively broad test range
D:long test cycle

-Coulter
A:easy operation short testing cycle, relatively high accuracy
D:narrower size range, easily blocked apertures, electric conductivity of medium necessary

-Laser diffraction
A:easy operation, broad test range, high degree of accuracy and repeatability on-line test and dry test available.
D:test results are subject to distribution pattern, high cost of instrument

-Electron Microscope
A:capable of measuring particles of nanometer size, high resolution
D:possible alternation of particles during sample preparation, small representation of overall sample, and high cost

-Ultrasonic
A:direct test on highly concentrated liquid
D:low resolution

-Gass absorption
A:low cost of instrument, sample dispersion not an issue, testing on magnetic powders capable
D:only average particle size available, particle size distribution unobtainable
