A methodology to determine the size distribution curve of the ROM was developed in a Brazilian iron ore mine. The size of the larger fragments was determined taking photographs and setting the scale of the images to analyze their dimensions (length of their edges and areas). This was implemented according to a specific protocol of sampling that involves split and homogenization stages in situ of a considerable quantity of ore (about 259 metric tonnes). During the sampling process, larger fragments were separated and smaller size material was screened. The methodology was developed initially in order to preview the performance of a primary gyratory crusher that is fed directly from trucks. Operational conditions of the equipment such as closed and open-side settings could be adjusted previously, obtaining different product size distributions. Variability of size of the fragments affects subsequent stages of crushing and can increase circulating load in the circuit. This leads to a decrease of productivity or recovery of the ore dressing. The results showed insignificant errors of accuracy and reproducibility of the sampling protocol when applied to friable itabirite rocks.

The changes in the size distribution of polycaprolactam that take place during melting and melt-spinning have been studied. During melting under a nitrogen atmosphere, thermal degradation as well as post polymerization takes place. Spinning the polymer under atmospheric conditions, thermal, thermo-oxidative, and mechanical degradations come into play. Post polymerization is also operative in this case. The net change that is being encountered in these processes is a broader size distribution of the polymer as compared to that of the parent one. The effects of three different anti-oxidants, which are paraphenylene diamine derivatives, on the size distribution of polycaprolactam during melting and melt-spinning have been studied. Anti-oxidants are found to check the broadening of the size-distribution curve and retain the mechanical properties of the material to an appreciable extent, even after heat treatment at a temperature of 160°C for 8 hours under atmospheric condition.

The relation between the specific surface and apparent density of copper powders electrodeposited from acid copper sulfate solutions is established. It is shown that the apparent density is inversely proportional to the specific surface of copper powder. The shape of the particle size distribution curve is also discussed.
