Nondestmctive testing (qv) can iaclude any test that does not damage the plastic piece beyond its iatended use, such as visual and, ia some cases, mechanical tests. However, the term is normally used to describe x-ray, auclear source, ultrasonics, atomic emission, as well as some optical and infrared techniques for polymers. Nondestmctive testing is used to determine cracks, voids, inclusions, delamination, contamination, lack of cure, anisotropy, residual stresses, and defective bonds or welds in materials.

Ultrasonic atomization is sometimes also termed capillary-wave atomization. In its most common form, 142 a thin film of a molten metal is atomized by the vibrations of the surface on which it flows. Standing waves are induced in the thin film by an oscillator that vibrates vertically to the film surface at ultrasonic frequencies. The liquid metal film is broken up at the antinodes along the surface into fine droplets once the amplitude of the capillary wave exceeds a certain value. The most-frequent diameter of the droplets generated is approximately one fourth of the wavelength of the capillary wave,1 421 and thus decreases with increasing frequency. 

Analytical and empirical correlations for droplet sizes generated by ultrasonic atomization are listed in Table 4.14 for an overview. In these correlations, Dm is the median droplet diameter, X is the wavelength of capillary waves, co0 is the operating frequency, a is the amplitude, UL0 is the liquid velocity at the nozzle exit in USWA, /Jmax is the maximum sound pressure, and Us is the speed of sound in gas. Most of the analytical correlations are derived on the basis of the capillary wave theory. Experimental observations revealed that the mean droplet size generated from thin liquid films on...

All these microcapsules were found to be roughly spherical in shape and of similar size (14-18 pm) (Drusch, 2007). A mixture of chitosan, maltodextrin and whey protein isolate was also found to be also a good wall material for encapsulation of fish oil using an ultrasonic atomizer followed by freeze-drying of the microcapsules (Klaypradit and Huang,...

Its formation is accompanied by the generation of a spray, resulting from the vibrations at the liquid surface and cavitation at the liquid-gas interface. The quantity of spray is a function of the intensity. Ultrasonic atomization is accomplished using an appropriate transducer made of PZT located at the bottom of the liquid container. A 500-1000 kHz transducer is generally adequate. The atomized spray which goes up in a column fixed to the liquid container is deposited onto a suitable solid substrate and then heat treated to obtain the film of the material concerned. The flow rate of the spray is controlled by the flow rate of air or any other gas. The liquid is heated to some extent, but its vaporization should be avoided.
