Nanoparticles of increasingly smaller particle size and various material compositions are being developed for the pharmaceutical, biomedical, electronics, optoelectronics, energy, catalyst and ...

The “tail” of a particle size distribution references the particles that are several standard deviations removed from the mean of the standard Gaussian distribution. Figure 1 demonstrates the ...

The delivery of an optimal and consistent particle size distribution adds value to electrode materials, and it is important to ensure the quality of a final product. This enables manufacturers to ...

Visual mapping can provide a particle-size distribution estimate. Q. Is there a clever way to directly measure drug/API particle size distribution in a tablet blend/granulation, assuming API has very ...

Graphite is a key structural component in some of the world's oldest nuclear reactors and many of the next-generation designs being built today. But it also condenses and swells in response to ...

The authors present a simple and material-sparing approach for estimating the powder-flow performance of previously uncharacterized single-component bulk powders when only particle-size distribution ...

Nanofibers have gained significant attention for different applications, such as barrier fabrics and high-efficiency filters. In biomedical applications, nanofibers have been used as drug delivery ...

The growth of large cities is often attributed to their proximity to exogenous, first-nature advantages. This column uses data on 450 Japanese cities to show that in fact, the regularity of ...
