Dear researchers,
I have a Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) powder that the powders stuck together and created large particles (agglomeration).
I have been able to reduce the size of the polymer particles by using a steel sieve with a size of 90 microns.
In all the articles that use the combination of PVDF/PTFE polymers to increase hydrophobicity, only nanometer-sized particles have been used because at 100 degrees temperature, this polymer can only be dispersed.
In my experiments, the large particles would not be smaller even after 4 days of continuous mixing. These big powders cause defects in the membrane structure.
Is there a mill that can reduce the size of these particles to nanometers?
If yes, what is the model of this special mill?
Do you know another method?
Regards
