Dispersion Behavior (dispersion + behavior)
Selected AbstractsDispersion Behavior of ZrB2 Powder in Aqueous SolutionJOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN CERAMIC SOCIETY, Issue 11 2007Sea-Hoon Lee Dispersion conditions of ZrB2 powder in water were investigated using poly(ethyleneimine) (PEI) as a dispersant. Pulverization of ZrB2 powder to submicrometer size was difficult and a substantial amount of large particles remained after an intensive planatery milling for 72 h. The isoelectric point (IEP) of ZrB2 powder was measured to be pH 5.8 by electrophoresis, which shifted to pH 6.2 after milling. The application of PEI changed the IEP of the boride slurry to ,pH 11. Well-dispersed aqueous ZrB2 slurries with a high solid loading (up to 45 vol%) were fabricated at pH 6.5,7.5 by the application of 1.5 wt% PEI.

The effects of primary particle size and aggregate density and structure on cohesivity were probed through tensile and shear strength tests on particle compacts. These cohesivity tests indicated that the shear strength of particle compacts was two orders of magnitude higher than the tensile strength at the same overall packing density. Experiments carried out in both steady and time-varying simple-shear flows indicate that dispersion occurs through tensile failure. In the steady-shear experiments,enhanced dispersion was obtained at higher levels of applied stress and, at comparable levels of applied stress, dispersion was found to proceed faster at higher shear rates. Experiments conducted in time-varying flows further corroborated the results obtained in tensile cohesivity tests. Experiments in which the mean and maximum stresses in the time-varying flows were matched to the stresses produced in steady shear flows highlight the influence of flow dynamics on dispersion behavior.

Here, we report printable conductive materials, with added nanosized glass frit that can be annealed at 500,°C to form a crack-free dense microstructure that adheres well to glass substrates. This overcomes the previous challenges while still retaining the desired high film conductivity. Controlling the particle characteristics and dispersion behavior plays an important role in successfully incorporating the glass frit into the conductive inks.
