Colorimeter LCC-A13

The colorimeter LCC-A13 offers the specular component excluded SCE measuring condition, specially designed for color measurement of powders, pasty materials, colloids and highly reflective materials. Both the yellowness & whiteness measurement can be done using this colorimeter. This colorimeter gives ultra stable performance throughout the operations.
