Microscopy of Filled Polymers, I. Size Distribution of Glass in Celcon.

Abstract

An optical microscopic method was developed to examine the particle size and particle size distribution of glass bead filler in Celcon. By this method it was found that a glass-filled Celcon rotating band that gave a good round had a larger number of smaller filler particles than one that failed. Preliminary work indicates that the distributions do not fit a two-parameter Tung type but that they can be described by a three-parameter function (Weibull). (Author)
