Inhaltsangabe
Part of a series on materials which exist in the form of a disperse system such as powders, pastes, slurries, emulsions and aerosols this is a survey of particle size measurement, which has been revised to include a new chapter concerning on-line particle size analysis and descriptions of recently developed instrumentation. The text will benefit chemical and process engineers concerned with all aspects of powder technology. The industrial applications of this new science are far reaching. The size of the fine particles affects the properties of a powder in many important ways. For example, it determines the setting time of cement, the hiding power of pigments and the activity of chemical catalysts; the taste of food, the potency of drugs and the sintering shrinkage of metallurgical powders are also strongly affected by the size of the particles of which powder is made up. Particle size measurement is to powder technology as thermometry is to the study of heat and is in the same state of flux as the thermometry was in its early days. The author is chairman of the Particle Size Analysis Group of the Society for Analytical Chemistry.

Reseña del editor
Powder technology is a subject in its own right, and powder characterization is central to an understanding of this discipline. In the eight years since the printing of the third edition of Particle Size Measurement there have been two big changes in my life. After thirty years of academia I have returned to industry, and after a lifetime in Great Britain I have emigrated to the United States. In industry the initial demand is to relate powder properties to product performance and then to maintain powder consistency. This requires on-line or rapid off-line analysis which, in turn, has led to the demand for a whole range of new instruments whose primary function is process monitoring. Historically, chemical engineering courses have concentrated on the be haviour of fluids, and engineers enter industry relatively unschooled in the subject of powder behaviour . Yet, when my colleagues Reg Davies and John Boughton surveyed three thousand Dupont products, they discovered that 80% involved powder at some stage of their manufacture. The results of this survey illustrate the need for more training in this key subject. This edition reflects the changing image of powder characterization towards in-process size analysis. Hence the chapter covering on-line analysis has been largely re-written. Apart from this, I have expanded certain sections and describe the new instruments that have been introduced since the last edition.
