A complete solution for ultrafi ne particulate monitoring


TSI is excited to introduce you to a new comprehensive solution to measure ultrafi ne particles in the atmosphere. It includes sampling of ultrafi ne particles as well as particle number (PN) concentration and particle size distribution (PSD) measurements, and is adapted to meet your needs. This solution is compliant to CEN/TS 16976:2016 and CEN/TS 17434:2020 which harmonises the sampling and measurement process. The TSI software permits that data can be easily integrated into station data management systems.


“Everybody needs reliable and accurate ambient air monitoring tools”, said Axel Zerrath, Global Product Manager at TSI. “To ensure our instruments are ready to produce data of the highest quality, the calibrations of our Condensation Particle Counters and Scanning Mobility Particle Sizer SMPS™ are conducted at one of the European Centers for Aerosol Calibration and Characterization (ECAC).”


TSI introduced the world’s fi rst continuous single-particle-counting condensation particle counter in 1979. Since then TSI is the established leader in ultrafi ne particle counters and sizers, as demonstrated in hundreds of peer-reviewed


publications. TSI CPCs and SMPS operate in atmospheric monitoring stations, environmental protection agencies, the Global Atmosphere Watch, program, and ACTRIS-participating organisations.

Next generation battery development accelerated through collaboration


Oxford Instruments have announced a new R&D collaboration has been formed with the University of Oxford’s Department of Materials and the Henry Royce Institute (Royce). It will work to accelerate research in future battery technologies by using benchtop Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) to develop new methods to monitor reactions in battery cells and use this understanding to enhance their performance. It aims to contribute to the UK’s industrial strategy to fi ght climate change through the development of new technology for net zero-emission vehicles and will contribute to realising practical lifetimes for beyond Li-ion technologies such as the Lithium-Air battery that promises a step-change improvement in energy density.

PRECISE. POWERFUL. ACCURATE.


Researchers will use X-Pulse, Oxford Instruments’ benchtop NMR spectrometer, to characterise the behaviour of a wide range of different elements within novel battery material formulations during electrochemical processes. X-Pulse is the world’s only broadband X-nucleus benchtop NMR spectrometer. Critical to the project is the development of in-operando NMR operation in an inert glovebox environment.


Prof. Peter G. Bruce, Department of Materials, University of Oxford said, “We are delighted to be working with Oxford Instruments on this project and look forward to a fruitful collaboration. Housing the instrument in an inert atmosphere opens the door to new experimental techniques and we are excited by the science this will enable. We are grateful to Royce for funding the spectrometer and look forward to welcoming the student to Oxford in the autumn.”


The Bruce Group at Oxford University’s Department of Materials focuses on understanding the properties of new materials used in energy storage, with a particular emphasis on solid-state chemistry and electrochemistry. Prof. Peter Bruce FRS is among the “The World’s Most Infl uential Scientifi c Minds” as a Thomson Reuters/Web of Science Highly Cited Researcher for six years in a row, 2015-2020. The group’s research aligns closely with the UK’s industrial strategy and the wider global drive to a greener economy. The UK’s Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) has given the project an Industrial Cooperative Award in Science & Technology (CASE). This will provide a dedicated PhD researcher with additional access to training, facilities, and expertise at Oxford Instruments’ headquarters.

Dr Ian Wilcock, Managing Director of Oxford Instruments Magnetic Resonance and NanoAnalysis, commented, “Our R&D and applications teams are very excited to be partnering with leading scientists at Oxford University and Royce. The NMR methods we develop together will not only contribute to new higher performance battery materials but will additionally ensure the quality of commercialised energy storage products.”


Prof Philip Withers, Chief Scientist at the Henry Royce Institute said, “We are excited to see what new research will come from the investment in the benchtop Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and its effects on our national ambitions to fast-track the electrifi cation on vehicles to support the UK’s transition to zero carbon. At the Henry Royce Institute we are often fi nding that our most innovative collaborations bring together researchers and equipment providers to pioneer new technologies and we look forward to working with Oxford Instruments to meet our common goals.”

Combined seating and storage for optimised changing room space


Hygienic furniture specialist Teknomek has launched compact step over seating benches intended to make the most of the space available in smaller changing rooms. The S-clad design builds in shoe compartments on both the unit for the ‘clean’ and ‘dirty’ sides of the room. This ensures further valuable space does not have to be expended on shoe storage for external and internal footwear.


Sue Springett, Commercial Manager at Teknomek, said: “Space is often at a premium in changing rooms, as choke points these represent a risk area when it comes to maintaining social distancing. As such, it’s in the best interests of businesses to make the most of the fl oor space available by reducing down the amount of furniture in the room as far as possible.


“The intelligent design of the S-clad seating benches helps solve this problem by integrating shoe storage and seating into a single item of furniture.”


The new benches are available in widths from 1000mm with a dedicated shelf for the clean and dirty sides. Customers can opt for 304-grade fully welded stainless steel as standard or choose 316-grade for additional corrosion resistance in line with their standard clean down procedures. Easy clean features include 50mm fl oor clearance for ease of access beneath the unit.
