The behavior of tracer particles in a concentrated suspension of non-colloidal spheres sheared in a parallel plate viscometer at low Reynolds number was investigated. The tracer particles were shown to migrate radially, with the tracer particles larger than those making up the suspension migrating radially outward. The migration velocity of the large tracer particles was measured, and found to be consistent with a shear-induced migration scaling (Leighton and Acrivos, 1987b), however the direction of the migration was the reverse of that suggested by the experiments of Abbot, et al. (1991) in a wide gap Couette device. The particle migration and segregation described here are interpreted in terms of the curvature of the flow geometry.

Aqueous solutions of a 1 weight-per cent poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO) were degassed under vacuum, transferred to a parallel plate viscometer under a nitrogen gas blanket, and exposed to Co60 gamma radiation. The Co60 source was rated at 4000 curies, and the dose ratewas 3.8x105 rads/hr. The poly (ethylene oxide) employed in the irradiations had an initial viscosity average molecular weight of 2.1 x 106.The solutions were gelled by a free radical reaction with dosages ranging from 5x104 rads to 4.8x106 rads.

The carbon fiber/metal oxide/metal oxynitride layer sandwich structure is constructed in the electrode to form a mini-plate capacitor. High dielectric constant metal oxides act as dielectric to increase their capacitance.
