  2. Dispersion (chemistry) - Wikipedia

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

    When the dispersed material is first introduced into the bulk medium, the region at which it is introduced then has a higher concentration of that material than any other point in the bulk. This unequal distribution results in a concentration gradient that drives the dispersion of particles in the medium so that the concentration is constant ...

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. Market concentration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Market_concentration

    Market concentration is related to industrial concentration, which concerns the distribution of production within an industry, as opposed to a market. In industrial organization , market concentration may be used as a measure of competition , theorized to be positively related to the rate of profit in the industry, for example in the work of ...

  6. Dispersity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersity

    When these radicals react in any reactor, their lifetimes, and as a result, the time needed for reaction are much shorter than any reactor residence time. For FRPs that have a constant monomer and initiator concentration, such that the DP n is constant, the dispersity of the resulting monomer is between 1.5 and 2.0. As a result, reactor type ...

  7. Colloid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colloid

    A colloid has a dispersed phase (the suspended particles) and a continuous phase (the medium of suspension). The dispersed phase particles have a diameter of approximately 1 nanometre to 1 micrometre. [2] [3] Some colloids are translucent because of the Tyndall effect, which is the scattering of light by particles in the colloid.

  8. Macroemulsion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macroemulsion

    The density of the dispersed and continuous phases, as well as the viscosity of the continuous phase, greatly affect the creaming process. If the dispersed phase liquid is less dense than the continuous phase liquid, creaming is more likely to occur. Also, there is a greater chance of creaming at lower viscosities of the continuous phase liquid.

  9. 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
