Size Distribution of Comminuted Porous Materials - The OOPS Region
This theoretical paper examines the expected shape of the size distribution curves of comminuted porous materials. A transitional region is predicted in the size distribution of the fragments from porous materials called the ’oops’ region. Also predicted is a change in fragment shape before and after the particle size passes through the size region of the voids-the Swiss cheese effect. The problem of void liberation and characterizing or measuring void volumes is discussed.
