Particle size distribution

the flow patterns generated on the film as well as the residence time of the reactants film. The effect of disc texture on particle characteristics is depicted in Figure 7 and Figure 8. It can be seen that using the grooved disc surface results in smaller particle size and narrower particle size distribution as compared to smooth disc surface. A narrow particle size distribution for the production of silver nanoparticles was achieved by Iyer et al.[43] using the grooved disc. The authors postulated

Gravel bed rivers are comprised of sediment particle sizes between 2-64mm, but may also include a degree of sand as high as 50% (Bunte and Abt 2001). This wide array of particle sizes can affect the rates of erosion, deposition, and overall morphology of a river. Understanding the rate and likelihood of these processes is crucial in comprehending contemporary river environments, their behaviour and surrounding ecology. Detailed characteristics and processes of gravel bed rivers is not well understood

The reaction characteristics of basic copper carbonate 〖mCuCO〗_3⋅n〖Cu(OH)〗_2 were observed by changing the reaction mole ratio. The reaction mole ratio of sodium carbonate to copper chloride (II) was controlled from 1.08 to 1.68. Fig. 1 shows the XRD patterns of copper carbonate powder. At a reaction ratio of 1.08, paratacamite (Cu_2 Cl(OH)_3 ), beside alkali copper carbonate, was formed because of incomplete reaction at a copper content of 53.9 wt%. Lack of sodium carbonate may cause incomplete

height of 7.64 km - the combined effect of both pressure and temperature implies the phase transformation of the water vapor. A rising parcel of air can have phase transformation of water vapor to liquid droplets and ice particles, and further, the liquid droplets and ice particles can also transform back to the vapor form. One would expect the effect of phase transformation can be captured as a source/sink term in the energy equation, but the intricacy of the system is furthered by the momentum driving

employed in the presence of various additives, i.e., polyethylene glycol (PEG), polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and polyvinyl alcohol with a molecular weight (PVA22000) or 16000 (PVA16000) at varying concentrations (0.06%, 0.3%, 0.6% and 1.2%, w/v). The size and morphological changes induced by crystallization the in presence of the additives were studied. The dissolution performance of crystallized xylitols formulated with a model poorly water-soluble drug, i.e. indomethacin, in comparison to commercial

A methodology has been developed for making low compressive strength cores that will be used to experimentally examine the Cold Heavy Oil Production with Sand (CHOPS) process occurring in unconsolidated oil reservoirs. The main objective is to experimentally model wormhole (high permeability channel) development during CHOPS and investigate the effect of various flow parameters such as core permeability and porosity, compressive strength, oil/water viscosity contrast, confining pressure and injection

When formulated as modified release dosage forms, pellets are less susceptible to dose dumping than the reservoir-type single unit formulations.4 Micropellets technology delivers almost perfectly spherical particles exhibiting a very narrow particle size distribution and excellent flow properties and these are characterized by a smooth surface free of dust and thus provide optimal conditions for subsequent film coating. Controlled release pellets are manufactured either to deliver the

slightly increased to 11.55 mm·h-1 at doses up to 15 kGy. SV was continuously decreased with the increasing dose and a 19.4% reduction rate was achieved at 15 kGy. According to the Stokes Law, the observed changes in u0 and SV were probably due to particle size decrease and sludge density increase after irradiation (Yu et al., 2010). In addition, a portion of solid matter was dissolved by irradiation, which could promote SV decrease. The improved settleability demonstrated that

crushed and passed through a 2mm sieve. Particle size distribution of the <2 mm fraction was undertaken following Malvern Mastersizer protocol (v1.3) (http://www.geog.cam.ac.uk/facilities/laboratories/techniques/psd.html) at the University of Cambridge. Only one sample was taken at each of the Northern Irish sites, when this was not possible, the Agri - Food and Biosciences Institute, supplied data on sediment particle sizes.
