Abstract:Agglomeration of nanoparticles is an often-observed phenomenon. In severe cases, it may lead to a reduction in the usability of a product. Therefore, it is necessary to study the processes that lead to this undesirable phenomenon. Analyzing this phenomenon, one learns that it is necessary to distinguish between ‘hard’ agglomerates called aggregates and ‘soft’ agglomerates. Furthermore, one has to distinguish arrangements, where, potentially, each particle may collide with each other or arrangements, where coll… Show more
