Measuring Particle Size and Shape of Needle Coke Using the BeVision D3
Abstract: Needle coke, a premium carbon material with highly oriented crystalline structure, plays a key role in the manufacturing of ultra-high power graphite electrodes and lithium-ion battery anodes. The performance and consistency of needle coke depend on its particle size distribution (PSD) an...
Powder and Particle Characteristics of Metal Feedstock for Powder-Bed Additive Manufacturing
Abstract: In additive manufacturing, particularly powder bed fusion, the characteristics of metal powders play a pivotal role in the quality and consistency of the final product. This study explores the relationships between particle size distribution, particle shape, bulk density, and flowability o...
Sediment Grain-Size Analysis Methods
Abstract: Grain size is a fundamental parameter for interpreting depositional processes, sediment transport, and environmental change in fluvial, coastal, and marine systems. This application note provides an overview of how sediment particle size distributions (PSDs) can be classified, measured, ...
