Der Vortrag zeigt zwei Möglichkeiten zur Verbesserung der VSSA-Screening-Methode zur Identifizierung von Nanopulvern auf. Bisher ist das Verfahren nur für monodisperse Partikel mit idealer Kugelform valide. Die Verteilungsbreite der Partikelgröße soll durch die Nutzung des Modells einer logarithmischen Normalverteilung implementiert werden. Die Abweichung der gemessenen Partikel von einer idealen Kugel in Sphärizität, Rundheit und Rauigkeit sind über einen Morphologiefaktor MF zu berücksichtigen. An einem konkreten Beispiel werden Auswirkungen der Implementierungen rechnerisch dargestellt und mit dem bisherigen Verfahren verglichen.
The use of increasingly finer starting powders up to nanopowders can also be observed in the field of ceramics. Their advantages consist, for example, in their lower activation energy, an increase in strength or unique optical properties. However, handling and characterization of the powders are much more difficult. The main reason for this is the very high adhesive forces between the particles and between particles and other surfaces, too. Therefore, submicron and even more so nanoparticles tend to agglomerate and their separation into primary particles during sample preparation prior to particle sizing is of particular challenge. A representative measurement sample is only obtained when it no longer contains agglomerates. The evaluation of the dispersion process and a decision on whether it was successful thus increases in importance for the reliability of the measurement results of particle sizing.
The presentation uses examples to show possible approaches and provides information on possible sources of error.
It is shown that successful granulometric characterisation of fine powders requires both an improved dispersion technique and very often an effective combination of two or more measurement methods.
Der Vortrag beleuchtet insbesondere die Herausforderungen die sich bei der Dispergierung der Nanopulver aufgrund der hohen Adhäsivkräfte ergeben. Die Bewertung der Probenpräparation ist nur indirekt zugänglich, aber essentiell für die Zuverlässigkeit der Messergebnisse. Anhand von Beispielen werden Lösungsvorschläge aufgezeigt. Der Vortrag schließt mit einem Vorschlag zur Strategie der Herangehensweise bei der Partikelgrößenbestimmung von Nanopulvern.
Particle size determination of a commercially available CeO2 nano powder - SOPs and reference data
(2023)
Compilation of detailed SOPs for characterization of a commercially available CeO2 nano powder including
- suspension preparation (indirect and direct sonication),
- particle size determination (Dynamic Light Scattering DLS and Centrifugal Liquid Sedimentation CLS) with reference data, respectively.
For sample preparation and analysis by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) of this powder see related works (submitted, coming soon).
If the particle size decreases, the ratio of surface area to volume increases considerably. This provides benefits for all surface-driven processes that run faster or at lower temperatures than larger particles. However, handling and characterization of the nanopowders are much more difficult. Particularly polydisperse powders with irregular shape, as grinding products, represent a challenge. Granulometry in the submicron and nanoscale often leads to incorrect results without knowledge of particle morphology.
This presentation demonstrates potentials of using the volume-specific surface area (SV or VSSA) in the granulometric characterization of nanopowders, for instance, correlations between the volume-specific surface area and the median particle size are discussed considering the particle morphology and the model of the logarithmic normal distribution.
Moreover, the presentation deals with the optimal dispersion of nanopowders during sample preparation. Indirect ultrasound device with defined cooling was developed to prevent both contamination by sonotrode abrasion and sample changes by heat.
Successful granulometric characterization of nanopowders demands both improved dispersion technology and very often an effective combination of two or more measurement methods.
Einführungsvortrag im Rahmen der Veranstaltung der BAM-Akademie zur Anwendung der OECD TG 124 "Volume Specific Surface Area of Manufactured Nanomaterials" zu Herausforderungen bei der Granulometrie von Nanopulvern. Es werden die Einflüsse von Partikelform, Breite der Partikelgrößenverteilung und Agglomeration/ Aggregation auf das Messergebnis sowie die Vergleichbarkeit der Ergebnisse verschiedener Messverfahren dargelegt.

This is the final report on the proficiency test (PT) „Measurement of the particle size distribution of ceramic powders by laser diffraction”. The PT was organized by the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM), division 5.5 “Advanced technical ceramics”. The measurements took place from 12/2021 to 03/2022. The aim of the interlaboratory comparison was the proficiency assessment of the participating laboratories.
Management and realization of PT were performed in accordance with DIN EN ISO/IEC 17043:2010.
The basis of the harmonized measuring procedure and the instructions for the interlaboratory comparison was the standard ISO 13320:2020.
The statistical analysis was performed in accordance with DIN ISO 13528:2020 by use of the software PROLab Plus (QuoData GmbH, Dresden, Germany).
A group of 44 laboratories from 17 countries participated in the PT. Laser diffraction analyzers produced by 7 different manufacturers were used. The three test materials were commercial products. Overall, the measured characteristic values of the particle distributions (d10, d50 and d90) were in the size range between 0.5 and 25 μm. The final report contains all individual results in an anonymous way.
