New hypotheses of no coalescence and no entrapment are proposed for mercury intrusion and extrusion. Pore structures are represented by a two-dimensional lattice for bond percolation and the Rayleigh distribution function taken for the pore size distribution. Different modes of hysteresis are found with the new hypotheses and the effect of Churl-Young Park accessible probability on the hysteresis loop is analyzed. A bimodal Son-Ki Ihm size distribution with micropores and macropores is analyzed by Department of Chemical Engineering considering the extent of overlapping and the sequence of connection Korea Advanced Institute of Science between both distributions. Mercury entrapment is also predicted by and Technology considering the pressure difference between the applied and assigned Seoul, Korea pressures, as determined by the Washburn equation, as a parameter for mercury breakage. The applicability of the proposed hypotheses is demonstrated by showing that experimental data on sample could be well correlated.Vol. 36, No. 11 pore in the closed loop 3. Micropores or crevices, which are not considered in the lattice, play the role of dead-end pores.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
