  2. Scherrer equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scherrer_Equation

    The Scherrer equation, in X-ray diffraction and crystallography, is a formula that relates the size of sub-micrometre crystallites in a solid to the broadening of a peak in a diffraction pattern. It is often referred to, incorrectly, as a formula for particle size measurement or analysis. It is named after Paul Scherrer.

  3. Surface roughness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_roughness

    Each of the formulas listed in the tables assumes that the roughness profile has been filtered from the raw profile data and the mean line has been calculated. The roughness profile contains n {\displaystyle n} ordered, equally spaced points along the trace, and y i {\displaystyle y_{i}} is the vertical distance from the mean line to the i th ...

  4. Cell wall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_wall

    The secondary cell wall, a thick layer formed inside the primary cell wall after the cell is fully grown. It is not found in all cell types. It is not found in all cell types. Some cells, such as the conducting cells in xylem , possess a secondary wall containing lignin , which strengthens and waterproofs the wall.

  5. Spherulite (polymer physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherulite_(polymer_physics)

    The size of spherulites varies in a wide range, from micrometers up to 8 centimeter [4] and is controlled by the nucleation. Strong supercooling or intentional addition of crystallization seeds results in relatively large number of nucleation sites; then spherulites are numerous and small and interact with each other upon growth.

  6. Bacterial cellulose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacterial_cellulose

    Plant cellulose, which makes up the cell walls of most plants, is a tough, mesh-like bulkwork in which cellulose fibrils are the primary architectural elements. While bacterial cellulose has the same molecular formula as plant cellulose, it has significantly different macromolecular properties and characteristics. [ 8 ]

  7. Particle-size distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle-size_distribution

    [3] p. 6 In the case where the material is in a heap, scoop or thief sampling needs to be done, which is inaccurate: the sample should ideally have been taken while the powder was flowing towards the heap. [3] p. 10 After sampling, the sample volume typically needs to be reduced.

  8. Grain boundary strengthening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grain_boundary_strengthening

    This is because when the grain size decreases at nm scale, there is an increase in the density of grain boundary junctions which serves as a source of crack growth or weak bonding. However, it was also observed that at grain size below 3.1 nm, a pseudo Hall–Petch relationship was observed, which results an increase in strength.

  9. Surface-area-to-volume ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface-area-to-volume_ratio

    SA:V is used to explain the diffusion of small molecules, like oxygen and carbon dioxide between air, blood and cells, [3] water loss by animals, [4] bacterial morphogenesis, [5] organism's thermoregulation, [6] design of artificial bone tissue, [7] artificial lungs [8] and many more biological and biotechnological structures.
