Aggregates surface area

The analysis for the single spray can be extended to curtains by using an aggregate surface area and water flow rate. An expression relating A, the spray area, to z, the axial distance, is required. This simple theoretical model can be modified to predict the spray envelope as well. 

The photocatalytic activity of Ti02 toward a specific reaction depends on both, its physicochemical properties such as primary particle size, degree of aggregation, surface area, crystalline structures, etc. and external conditions such as irradiation intensity, pH of the aqueous system, the presence/absence of elec-tron/hole scavengers, and the bias potential if applied for Ti02 film photoelectrodes. These factors are often interactively affecting the overall photocatalytic activity (Hoffmann et al. 1995).

Assessment of the coating of the total aggregate surface area by bitumen emulsion is carried out in both test samples, using the grades good, fair or poor. 

N is the number of particles, SA is the projected aggregate surface area (as from electromicrographs) and Ap is the projected area of a single particle. These relations (2.43,44), of course, are based on empirical observation of a relatively small number of aggregates and may have limited validity. 

As Dickinson and co-workers [26] have shown, for fracture-induced material ejecta the aggregate surface area of the ejected material particles may be greater than the cross-sectional area of the fractured sample therefore, "...ejecta should be considered in any description of fracture for most materials." They also point out that high strength materials yield the most finely-divided ejecta with high surface areas. This is, of course, because these are the materials which store the higher strain energies prior to fracture, therefore the ones which produce the more violent "explosions" at break.

In practice, this relationship is well obeyed. Figure 29 displays results on the cold filter plugging point (X CFPP) for different diblock compositions plotted against the aggregate surface area. These surface areas were obtained from Eq. 59 using the appropriate diblock copolymer parameters. As may be seen, the cold filter plugging point data relates linearly to the surface area from the SANS results. The CFPP results are from the summation of data obtained from four different test fuels.
