Abstract:

A survey of the literature on methods of determination of the particle size of fine powders was performed. A summary of the information obtained is presented and a number of pertinent articles are reviewed in detail. The scope of the survey was limited to measurement in the sub-sieve range and involved primarily those methods of interest in the solid propellant field for measuring ammonium perchlorate. An appendix is included which lists additional references which may be of interest to persons concerned with the size of fine powders.
