Malvern Appoints Process Specialist in China


16 February 2010: Malvern, UK: Malvern Instruments has expanded its team serving the particle characterization market in China with the appointment of Terry Liu to the role of Process Specialist. Terry is part of the Malvern China team and works from the company's Shanghai office. He will support customers across a range of industries in their implementation of Insitec in- on- and at-line solutions for particle size measurement and process optimization.

A graduate of the Nanjing University of Technology, Terry Liu has a degree in instrument and automation. Before joining Malvern he worked at the Tianjin Institute of Chemical Engineering Design and has experience working with industry automation and petrochemical projects.

Terry will also be involved in delivering Malvern's consultancy service. Offered on a fixed fee basis, this combines an in situ plant trial of the Insitec system with expert advice. Such a trial over several days allows customers to fully explore the potential benefits of real-time monitoring on their own process and quantify payback times with confidence, ahead of investing in on-line technology.

About Malvern Instruments

Malvern Instruments provides a range of complementary materials characterization tools that deliver inter-related measurements reflecting the complexities of particulates and disperse systems, nanomaterials and macromolecules. Analytical instruments from Malvern are used in the characterization of a wide variety of materials, from industrial bulk powders to nanomaterials and delicate macromolecules. A broad portfolio of innovative technologies is combined with intelligent, user-friendly software. These systems deliver industrially relevant data enabling our customers to make the connection between micro (such as particle size) and macro (bulk) material properties (rheology) and chemical composition (chemical imaging).

Particle size, particle shape, zeta potential, molecular weight, chemical composition and rheological properties measurements are now joined by advanced chromatography solutions (GPC/SEC), extending Malvern's technologies for protein molecular weight, size and aggregation measurements, and synthetic polymer molecular weight and distribution. The company's laboratory, at-line, on-line and in-line solutions are proven in sectors as diverse as cement production and pharmaceutical drug discovery.

Headquartered in Malvern, UK, Malvern Instruments has subsidiary organizations in all major European markets, North America, China, Korea and Japan, a joint venture in India, a global distributor network and applications laboratories around the world. www.malvern.com
