It is a process in which
physical and chemical
changes are occurred.
These includes
-hydrogenation,
- halogenation,
- oxidation,
- reduction,
- nitration,
- sulphonation
etc.
3) Sphericity (s):
A measure of the particle size which is frequently used is
the sphericity (s).
s =
For spherical particle of diameter (Dp), s = 1. For nonspherical particle, the sphericity is defined by the relation:
s = 6. Vp/Dp . Sp
Dp = Nominal diameter of particle or equivalent diameter of
particle
Sp = Surface area of the particle
Vp = Volume of the particle
For crushed materials, s = 0.6 to 0.8
For cubes, s = 0.81; For cylinders, s = 0.87
Sphericity s = 6vp/Dpsp
No. of particles in mixture N = m / pvp
Total surface area A = N sp = 6 m / s p Dp
Specific surface of mixture Aw = 6 / s p (xi / Dpi)
Average particle size Ds = 1 / (xi / Dpi)
Mass mean diameter Dw = (xi Dpi)
