The aim was to investigate particles of poly (methylmethacrylate)(PMMA) prepared by suspension polymerization using different concentration of a stabilizer and by varying of the agitation speed at 300, 400, and 500 rpm. Particle size distribution (PSD), and morphology of the PMMA powders were observed and compared with commercial orthodontic PMMA powder. The experimental results indicated that the increasing the agitation speed tends to decrease the particles size at 0.08 wt % stabilizer.

A new Monte Carlo method termed Comb-like frame Monte Carlo is developed to simulate the soot dynamics. Detailed stochastic error analysis is provided. Comb-like frame Monte Carlo is coupled with the gas phase solver Chemkin II to simulate soot formation in a 1-D premixed burner stabilized flame. The simulated soot number density, volume fraction, and particle size distribution all agree well with the measurement available in literature. The origin of the bimodal distribution of particle size distribution is revealed with quantitative proof.

Characteristics of two formulations of trifluralin, an emulsifiable concentrate (EC) and emulsion, oil in water (EW), the latter being a new formulation of our design, were investigated and compared. Attention was focused on particle size distribution and aspects of the two aqueous dilute formulations as the most characteristic and comparable parameters. The results show that the trifluralin EW formulation has certain advantages over the EC formulation, but a final estimate will be possible only after testing biological efficacy of the new formulation (EW).
