A dispersion of spherical polymer particles contains Np = 4•1013 particles/dm3. The total surface of the particles in 1 dm3 is Asp = 820 m2.
a) What kind of average diameter can we calculate. Calculate this average diameter.
b) If we know that the dispersion contains 60 vol% water, we can calculate another type of average diameter. Which? Find it!
a) Surface average.
[tex]\bar{d_s} = \sqrt{\frac{\Sigma n_i d_i^2}{\Sigma n_i}}[/tex]
b) Volume average.
[tex]\bar{d_s} = \sqrt{\frac{\Sigma n_i d_i^3}{\Sigma n_i}}[/tex]
I don't know how to incorporate the data into the formulas.
