the characterizations of natural diatomite from birjand deposit (iran) were studied such as chemical compositions, specific surface area, total pore volume, pore size distribution and xrd. the diatomite that was treated only with sulfuric acid displayed a larger surface area, expanded total pore volume and increased pore size in comparison with both washed natural diatomite with deionized water...

The 70SiO2-15TiO2-15ZrO2 membrane was prepared by a sol-gel procedure. The corrosion behavior of microporous toplayers along with the membrane characterization in terms of pore size, surface area, pore volume and weight loss is described. The final ceramic membrane with a thickness of 400 nm and uniform surface was obtained. This membrane confirmed the fine microporous characteristic with mean ...

Abstract Image analysis is used to study the effect of sintering atmosphere and sintering times on the pores morphology of Astaloy CrM. The pores morphology was described by means of some parameters, Circular Diameter (DC)- which shows the diameter of equivalent circle for comparing the pore size, FElongation and FShape- which have different geometrical meanings. The results have been interpret...
