Modification of interparticle forces for nanoparticles using atomic layer deposition
چکیده انگلیسی

Silica and titania nanoparticles were individually coated with ultrathin alumina films using atomic layer deposition (ALD) in a fluidized bed reactor. The effect of the coating on interparticle forces was studied. Coated particles showed increased interactions which impacted their flowability. This behavior was attributed to modifications of the Hamaker coefficient and the size of nanoparticles. Stronger interparticle forces translated into a larger mean aggregate size during fluidization, which increased the minimum fluidization velocity. A lower bed expansion was observed for coated particles due to enhanced interparticle forces that increased the cohesive strength of the bed. Increased cohesiveness of coated powders was also determined through angle of repose and Hausner index measurements. The dispersability of nanopowders was studied through sedimentation and z-potential analysis. The optimum dispersion conditions and isoelectric point of nanoparticle suspensions changed due to the surface modification. A novel atomic force microscope (AFM) technique was used to directly measure interactions between nanoparticles dispersed on a flat substrate and the tip of an AFM cantilever. Both Van der Waals and electrostatic interactions were detected during these measurements. Long and short range interactions were modified by the surface coating.
