This textbook is a comprehensive introduction to the many concepts of this broad subject. Case studies are provided alongside real life industrial applications illustrating the techniques and theory. This book will be essential reading for students of chemical engineering on particle technology courses.
Klappentext zu „Introduction to Particle Technology “
Particle technology is a term used to refer to the science and technology related to the handling and processing of particles and powders. The production of particulate materials, with controlled properties tailored to subsequent processing and applications, is of major interest to a wide range of industries, including chemical and process, food, pharmaceuticals, minerals and metals companies and the handling of particles in gas and liquid solutions is a key technological step in chemical engineering.This textbook provides an excellent introduction to particle technology with worked examples and exercises. Based on feedback from students and practitioners worldwide, it has been newly edited and contains new chapters on slurry transport, colloids and fine particles, size enlargement and the health effects of fine powders. Topics covered include:
* Characterization (Size Analysis)
* Processing (Granulation, Fluidization)
* Particle Formation (Granulation, Size Reduction)
* Storage and Transport (Hopper Design, Pneumatic Conveying, Standpipes, Slurry Flow)
* Separation (Filtration, Settling, Cyclones)
* Safety (Fire and Explosion Hazards, Health Hazards)
* Engineering the Properties of Particulate Systems (Colloids, Respirable Drugs, Slurry Rheology)
This book is essential reading for undergraduate students of chemical engineering on particle technology courses. It is also valuable supplementary reading for students in other branches of engineering, applied chemistry, physics, pharmaceutics, mineral processing and metallurgy. Practitioners in industries in which powders are handled and processed may find it a useful starting point for gaining an understanding of the behaviour of particles and powders.

In general terms, microstructural characterization is achieved by allowing some form of probe to interact with a carefully prepared specimen sample. The most commonly used probes are visible light, X-ray radiation and high-energy electron beams. These three types of probe form the basis for optical microscopy, X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy.
The book is an introduction to the expertise involved in assessing the microstructure of engineering materials and to the experimental methods used for this purpose. In the same way as the first edition, Microstructural Characterization of Materials - 2nd edition will explore the methodology of materials characterization under the three headings of crystal structure, microstructural morphology, and microanalysis. The principal methods of characterization including diffraction analysis, optical microscopy, electron microscopy, and chemical microanalytical techniques are treated in full. An additional chapter has been added to the new edition on surface probe microscopy and there are new sections on digital recording, processing, and analysis. The second edition has been updated, and has revised and expanded problems from the first edition to aid learning.
The book will appeal to senior undergraduate and graduate students of material sciences, materials engineering and materials chemistry. In addition, more advanced researchers will find the book useful as a general reference source.
