  2. Dispersion (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    This is the reason why some liquid dispersions turn to become gels or even solid at a concentration of a dispersed phase above a critical concentration (which is dependent on particle size and interfacial tension). Also, the sudden appearance of conductivity in a system of a dispersed conductive phase in an insulating matrix has been explained.

  3. Emulsion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emulsion

    dispersed phase is an organic material and the continuous phase is water or an aqueous solution and is termed water/oil (w/o) if the dispersed phase is water or an aqueous solution and the continuous phase is an organic liquid (an "oil"). Note 5: A w/o emulsion is sometimes called an inverse emulsion.

  4. Distributed manufacturing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_manufacturing

    Distributed manufacturing, also known as distributed production, cloud producing, distributed digital manufacturing, and local manufacturing, is a form of decentralized manufacturing practiced by enterprises using a network of geographically dispersed manufacturing facilities that are coordinated using information technology.

    Then effectively spread throughout a larger volume of water than the surface from where the oil was dispersed. They can also delay the formation of persistent oil-in-water emulsions . However, laboratory experiments showed that dispersants increased toxic hydrocarbon levels in fish by a factor of up to 100 and may kill fish eggs.

  6. Particle-size distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle-size_distribution

    The closer this value is to 1.0, the better the data fit to a hyperplane representing the relationship between the response variable and a set of covariate variables. A value equal to 1.0 indicates all data fit perfectly within the hyperplane. λ: Gas mean free path (cm) D 50: Mass-median-diameter (MMD). The log-normal distribution mass median ...

  7. Suspension (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    When light is sent through the sample, it is back scattered by the particles. The backscattering intensity is directly proportional to the size and volume fraction of the dispersed phase. Therefore, local changes in concentration (sedimentation) and global changes in size (flocculation, aggregation) are detected and

  8. Dispersive mass transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersive_mass_transfer

    Dispersive mass transfer, in fluid dynamics, is the spreading of mass from highly concentrated areas to less concentrated areas. It is one form of mass transfer. [1] Dispersive mass flux is analogous to diffusion, and it can also be described using Fick's first law:

  9. Centralisation - Wikipedia

    This is guided by the idea that once concentration of production develops into a particular level, it will become a monopoly, like party organisations of Cartel, Syndicate, and Trust. [ 8 ] Cartel - In economics, a cartel is an agreement between competing firms to control prices or exclude entry of a new competitor in a market.
