“…The change in α-LM concentration in the system can be used as an indicator of the extent of segregation of α-LM in the main mixture (SM). The segregation extent for the main mixture was determined by calculating the ratio between the amount of α-LM recovered at the end of tribo-electrification and the amount of α-LM initially used for each sample, as shown by: (6) An extent of segregation that is equal to one indicates a fully segregated system, whilst a value of zero indicates a system where no segregation has taken place. Therefore, an increase from zero indicates that more α-LM particles have adhered to the container walls and this indicates that the binary mixture has undergone segregation.…”
