How do Surfactants Affect Powder Agglomeration?
Surfactants significantly affect the agglomeration behavior of powder. They change the interfacial properties, force balance, and medium environment of powder particles. The specific mechanism can be divided into five aspects: Adsorption Modification and Surface Energy Reduction Surfactants adsorb onto powder surfaces. This lowers surface energy and suppresses powder agglomeration. The mechanisms include: Hydrophobic Group Anchoring: […]
