AGGLOMERATION ASSESMENT OF NANO-SIZED ALUMINA POWDERS
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
Abstract: Nanoparticles exhibit a high reactivity and strong tendency towards agglomeration. In this study, aluminum oxide (alumina) nanoparticles were characterized by gas adsorption (BET), transmition electron microscopy (TEM) and photon correlation spectroscopy (PCS) techniques to assess the agglomeration of the particles. There is a good correlation between the BET and TEM measurements but PCS was larger in the mean and median size and with a degree of agglomerates being detected. Some agglomeration was evident, but most of the particles existed as discrete objects as observed in the (HR) TEM images which were in good agreement with the agglomeration factor.

Thermal Plasma Synthesis of Nano-sized Powders
Thermal plasmas, normally generated by DC (direct current) arc or inductively coupled RF (Radio Frequency) discharge, can be described as a high enthalpy flame with extremely high temperature fields (1,000~20,000 K) and a wide range of velocity fields from several m/s [1-5] to supersonic values [6-7]. Since the resultant huge enthalpy can be realized for various kinds of plasma forming gases an...
متن کاملStructural characterization of nano-sized calcium deficient apatite powders.
Nano-sized calcium-deficient apatitic (CDHA) crystals with Ca/P ratios from 1.5 to 1.67 were synthesized using wet chemical method and of needle-like shape with 5-10 nm in diameter and 40-50 nm in length was observed. The structural environment of the Ca atoms in all the CDHA nano-crystals has been investigated using EXAFS, XANES and EELS. The results reveal that a maximum Fourier transform amp...

متن کاملEffect of Agglomeration on the Toxicity of Nano-sized Carbon Black in Sprague-Dawley Rats
OBJECTIVES Recent studies have shown that nano-sized carbon black is more toxic than large respirable carbon black because of its higher surface area. However, it is not clear if carbon black made larger by agglomeration demonstrates decreased toxicity. The purpose of this study was to verify if agglomeration affects the toxicity of carbon black using three differently prepared nano-sized carbo...
متن کاملMorphology investigation of alumina nano-powders prepared by a sol-gel combustion method
Highly sinterable alumina nano-powders have been synthesized by a sol-gel combustion method with glycine asfuel. The preparation involved the thermal decomposition of a chelating agent (fuel)-nitrate gel and theformation of amorphous precursors. The nanopowders calcined at 1100°C were characterized by X-ray powderdiffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). It was found that the ch...
