Differential Distribution: The differential distribution shows the relative amount* at each size. For example, for the one shown here, using a ruler to draw horizontal and vertical lines, one can determine that the differential amount at 14.5 nm is about 40 while at 18 nm it is about 20. Therefore, the differential distribution is telling us there is twice the amount at 14.5 nm compared to the ...

The particle size distribution of aerosols produced by electronic cigarettes was measured in an undiluted state by a spectral transmission procedure and after high dilution with an electrical mobility analyzer. The undiluted e-cigarette aerosols were found to have particle diameters of average mass in the 250-450 nm range and particle number concentrations in the 10(9) particles/cm(3) range. Th...

We review recent progress concerning the composition and size distribution of the particles in Saturn’s main ring system, and describe how these properties vary from place to place. We discuss how the particle size distribution is measured, and how it varies radially. We note the discovery of unusually large “particles” in restricted radial bands. We discuss the properties of the grainy regolit...

Particle size distribution (PSD) affects properties of particulate materials and is used for denoting their quality and performance. Among many techniques available to measure PSD, many are quite often offline methods and are time consuming. Also methods like sieving involve, handling of the material physically and electromagnetically, which is healthy, if avoided for certain materials. Thus th...

Crystallization is a widely used technology for solid-liquid separation in the process industry. It is extensively used in the production of pharmaceuticals to separate the drug from the solvent mixture as well as to ensure that the drug crystal product conforms to size and morphology specifications. The crystal size in crystallization processes is one of the most important variables since it i...

In this study, spherical Nb2O5 nanoparticles were synthesized by a novel chemical method as a simple, robust, surfactant-free, non-toxic and widely applicable approach. In order to investigate the effect of initial concentration on particle sizes, nanoparticles with different initial concentration were synthesized. Ultrasonic assisted method was applied and the effects of ultrasonic treat...
