Bipolar Charging of Powders
During powder handling powder particles collide with each other and with boundary walls and so charge. Particles are found to charge in a bipolar fashion, ie some particles are charged positively, some negatively and some hardly at all. We are investigating fundamental reasons for bipolar charging and are attempting to control it.
