  2. Dispersion (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersion_(chemistry)

    Dispersion is a process by which (in the case of solid dispersing in a liquid) agglomerated particles are separated from each other, and a new interface between the inner surface of the liquid dispersion medium and the surface of the dispersed particles is generated. This process is facilitated by molecular diffusion and convection. [4]

  3. Dispersion stabilized molecules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersion_stabilized...

    Dispersion forces keep the molecule inert even while its core Si-Si bond lengthens. Similarly, the longest known Ge-Ge bond is found in t Bu 3 GeGe t Bu 3 and is also facilitated by dispersion stabilization. [19] Dispersion stabilization has also been invoked for (t BuC) 3 P, a main group analog of a hydrocarbon tetrahedrane. [20]

  4. Dispersity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersity

    A uniform polymer (often referred to as a monodisperse polymer) is composed of molecules of the same mass. [5] Nearly all natural polymers are uniform. [6] Synthetic near-uniform polymer chains can be made by processes such as anionic polymerization, a method using an anionic catalyst to produce chains that are similar in length.

  5. London dispersion force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_dispersion_force

    London dispersion forces (LDF, also known as dispersion forces, London forces, instantaneous dipole–induced dipole forces, fluctuating induced dipole bonds [1] or loosely as van der Waals forces) are a type of intermolecular force acting between atoms and molecules that are normally electrically symmetric; that is, the electrons are ...

  6. Dispersion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersion

    Dispersion (chemistry), a system in which particles are dispersed in a continuous phase of a different composition; Dispersion (geology), a process whereby sodic soil disperses when exposed to water; Dispersion (materials science), the fraction of atoms of a material exposed to the surface; Dispersion polymerization, a polymerization process

  7. Sol (colloid) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sol_(colloid)

    Examples include amongst others blood, pigmented ink, cell fluids, paint, antacids and mud. Artificial sols can be prepared by two main methods: dispersion and condensation. In the dispersion method, solid particles are reduced to colloidal dimensions through techniques such as ball milling and Bredig's arc method. In the condensation method ...

  8. Dispersion (materials science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersion_(materials_science)

    In materials science, dispersion is the fraction of atoms of a material exposed to the surface. In general, D = N S / N , where D is the dispersion, N S is the number of surface atoms and N T is the total number of atoms of the material. [ 1 ]

  9. Diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion

    "Bulk flow" is the movement/flow of an entire body due to a pressure gradient (for example, water coming out of a tap). "Diffusion" is the gradual movement/dispersion of concentration within a body with no net movement of matter. An example of a process where both bulk motion and diffusion occur is human breathing. [2]
