1. Particle size and surface area. Powders are likely the least predictable of all materials with respect to flowability. This is because there are a whole lot of factors that can change their flow properties. In tablet formulation, particle size distribution and shape influence mixing efficiency and flow properties of powders and granules.
Get MoreSeveral aerosol properties depend on the particle surface area and volume distributions with respect to particle size. Let's define aerosol surface area distribution nS(D) as nS(D) dD = the surface area of particles per cm 3 of air having diameters in the range D and D + dD (here dD is an infinitesimally small increase in diameter).

Particle size distribution (PSD) of soils is an important physical property influencing relevant soil processes such as water and heat flow (Bittelli et al., 2015).The hydraulic properties, namely the soil water retention and the hydraulic conductivity curves, are affected by PSD, which in turn affects the pore size distribution and soil structure.

If one differentiates the cumulative distribution curve, the differential distribution is obtained. If one integrates the differential distribution curve, the cumulative distribution is …

Get MoreParticles are defined by their diameter for air quality regulatory purposes. Those with a diameter of 10 microns or less (PM10) are inhalable into the lungs and can induce adverse health effects. Fine particulate matter is defined as particles that are 2.5 microns or less in diameter (PM2.5). Therefore, PM2.5 comprises a portion of PM10.
