Preparation of Nonspherical Fine Particles by Ultrasonic Vibration during Radiation-Induced Polymerization.

Nonspherical armoured bubble vibration.

In this paper, we study the dynamics of cylindrical armoured bubbles excited by mechanical vibrations. A step by step transition from cylindrical to spherical shape is reported as the intensity of the vibration is increased, leading to a reduction of the bubble surface and a dissemination of the excess particles. We demonstrate through energy balance that nonspherical armoured bubbles constitut...

Bubbling behavior of a fluidized bed of fine particles caused by vibration-induced air inflow

We demonstrate that a vibration-induced air inflow can cause vigorous bubbling in a bed of fine particles and report the mechanism by which this phenomenon occurs. When convective flow occurs in a powder bed as a result of vibrations, the upper powder layer with a high void ratio moves downward and is compressed. This process forces the air in the powder layer out, which leads to the formation ...

Preparation of ZnS nanoparticles by ultrasonic radiation method

Zn nanoparticles were prepared by the inert-gas evaporation technique with induction heating method. Asprepared Zn particles were mixed with Na2S solution. ZnS nanoparticles were synthesized under ultrasonic radiation. They were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV spectrophotometry, and X-ray photoelectron spectrometry (XPS). XRD revealed that the ZnS ...

Synthesis of Silica/Polystyrene Nanocomposite Particles by Miniemulsion Polymerization

Miniemulsion polymerization is one of heterogeneous polymerization method that can be effectively used to synthesis of various novel organic-inorganic nanocomposite particles. This method can provide opportunity of good incorporation between the polymer and inorganic phases in the formed submicrometer-sized particles. In this article, we report preparation polystyrene/silica nanocomposite p...
