Quantifying Particle Coatings Using High-Precision Mass Measurements

We present a general method to quantify coatings on microparticle surfaces based on the additional mass. Particle buoyant mass is determined in a solution with a density that is nearly equivalent to that of the core particle, reducing the magnitude and uncertainty of the measurement. Under these con...
