Ultrafine Bubbles — Advanced Nanobubble Analysis with ZetaView®
Ultrafine bubbles, also known as nanobubbles, are gas-filled cavities smaller than 200 nm in diameter. Due to their exceptional stability, surface charge (zeta potential), and large surface-to-volume ratio, they have become an exciting field of innovation across science and industry. Reliable ultrafine bubble measurement and nanobubble characterization are essential to unlock their full potential.
Why are Ultrafine Bubbles important?
- Exceptional stability — Unlike larger bubbles, ultrafine bubbles remain stable in liquids for long periods, driven by Brownian motion rather than buoyancy.
- Efficient gas transfer — Their unique surface properties improve oxygen solubility, redox processes, and water disinfection.
- Broad application areas — Nanobubbles are increasingly used in wastewater treatment, aquaculture, agriculture, food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, and surface cleaning.
As demand grows, the need for accurate nanobubble analysis and reproducible ultrafine bubble measurement has become more important than ever.
