Analysis of Graphite's Particle Size in a Convenient Way Using Laser Diffraction
Graphite is commonly used in anode material manufacturing. However, the measurement of graphite particles often meets problems in the dispersion step due to their small particle size. In this note, Bettersizer ST is used, and the sample is prepared using dish detergent. The simple measurement proced...
Improving the Tapped Density of the Cathode Material to make a Lithium-ion Battery Hold More Energy
Tapped density is one of two important physical properties of electrode materials and affects the energy density of a Li-ion battery (LIB). The other important physical property is the particle size distribution which provides the appropriate information to optimize the grinding parameters during pr...
Investigating the Relation Between Coffee Extraction and Ground Coffee Size
Particle size and size distributions of ground coffee significantly affect the extraction level and the flavor quality of brewed coffee. Monitoring the particle sizes and size distributions in ground coffees is necessary. In this note, different ground coffees were successfully characterized by the ...
