Overview

Particle size measurement is the crucial technique in powder technology, as the properties of a powder are dependent upon its particle size distribution. This work discusses a range of measurement techniques in detail, together with chapters on surface area determination. Instrumentation is covered throughout, and manufacturers and suppliers of commercially available equipment are listed. This reference work is aimed at industrial and academic research workers in a variety of areas, including: pharmaceuticals; food science; pollution analysis and control; electronic materials; agricultural products; polymers; pigments and chemicals.
