Sentence examples for tendency of particles from inspiring English sources

In aqueous media, higher liquid surface tension and particle surface hydrophobicity increase the adhesion strength and the tendency of particles to agglomerate, in agreement with the model.

The dominant mechanism of soot deposition in the OVD process is thermophoresis, which is the tendency of particles to migrate down the local gas temperature gradient.

Accumulation can be described using mean leaf-density values; while the mean value increases over time, the stochastic variability around the mean basically remains stable (see "aggregation") Aggregation Describes the tendency of particles or pollen grains to progressively clump together on leaf surfaces, leading to increased variability in leaf-density values around the mean over time.

The tendency of particles to form aggregates depends on the surface modification and charge.

A more precise determination of the size distribution from TEM is not possible owing to the high aggregation tendency of particles larger than a few nanometers.

The authors concluded that the observed tendency of particles to adhere more strongly to the cell membrane under serum-free conditions contributes to the increase in NP uptake.

Although surfactants might increase the internal stress of the coating and lead to cracks in the composite structure, they are notable positively as they tend to change the surface charge (zeta potential) of the particles and decrease the tendency of particle agglomeration [23, 24], promoting the co-deposition and uniformity of the particles throughout composite layers [14, 23, 24].

These test results demonstrate that for the functionalized TiO2 nanoparticles, the shear force at a high agitation speed can decrease the tendency of particle agglomeration and the nanofluid with a good dispersion stability can be observed by stirring for 180 min.

Variations in chitosan molecular weight, chitosan concentration, chitosan to TPP weight ratio and solution pH value were examined systematically for their effects on nanoparticle size, intensity of surface charge, and tendency of particle aggregation so as to enable speedy fabrication of chitosan nanoparticles with predetermined properties.

The tendency of particle aggregation, sedimentation, and physicochemical incompatibility of starting materials may lead to instability of nanoformulations.

This is due to the tendency of smaller particles to be single magnetic domains and larger particles usually contain multiple domains.
