Bulk solid

The limiting compression (or maximum v value) is, theoretically, the one that places the film in equilibrium with the bulk material. Compression beyond this point should force film material into patches of bulk solid or liquid, but in practice one may sometimes compress past this point. Thus in the case of stearic acid, with slow compression collapse occurred at about 15 dyn/cm [81] that is, film material began to go over to a three-dimensional state. With faster rates of compression, the v-a isotherm could be followed up to 50 dyn/cm, or well into a metastable region. The mechanism of collapse may involve folding of the film into a bilayer (note Fig. IV-18). [Pg.116]

A study by Bames and co-workers of the equilibrium spreading behavior of dimyristol phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) reconciles the differences between spreading of bulk solids and dispersions of liposomes [41]. This study shows the formation of multibilayers below the monolayer at the air-water interface. An incipient phase separation, undetectable by microscopy, in DMPC-cholesterol... [Pg.544]

For tire purjDoses of tliis review, a nanocrystal is defined as a crystalline solid, witli feature sizes less tlian 50 nm, recovered as a purified powder from a chemical syntliesis and subsequently dissolved as isolated particles in an appropriate solvent. In many ways, tliis definition shares many features witli tliat of colloids , defined broadly as a particle tliat has some linear dimension between 1 and 1000 nm [1] tire study of nanocrystals may be drought of as a new kind of colloid science [2]. Much of die early work on colloidal metal and semiconductor particles stemmed from die photophysics and applications to electrochemistry. (See, for example, die excellent review by Henglein [3].) However, the definition of a colloid does not include any specification of die internal stmcture of die particle. Therein lies die cmcial distinction in nanocrystals, die interior crystalline stmcture is of overwhelming importance. Nanocrystals must tmly be little solids (figure C2.17.1), widi internal stmctures equivalent (or nearly equivalent) to drat of bulk materials. This is a necessary condition if size-dependent studies of nanometre-sized objects are to offer any insight into die behaviour of bulk solids. [Pg.2899]

Bulk density is easily measured from the volume occupied by the bulk solid and is a strong func tion of sample preparation. True density is measured by standard techniques using liquid or gas picnometry Apparent (agglomerate) density is difficult to measure directly. Hink-ley et al. [Int. ]. Min. Proc., 41, 53-69 (1994)] describe a method for measuring the apparent density of wet granules by kerosene displacement. Agglomerate density may also be inferred from direcl measurement of true density and porosity using Eq. (20-42). [Pg.1877]

Powder Mechanics Measurements As opposed to fluids, powders may withstand applied shear stress similar to a bulk solid due to interparticle friction. As the applied shear stress is increased, the powder will reach a maximum sustainable shear stress T, at which point it yields or flows. This limit of shear stress T increases with increasing applied normal load O, with the functional relationship being referred to as a yield locus. A well-known example is the Mohr-Coulomb yield locus, or... [Pg.1888]
