(67) but here negative, the <strong>adhesion</strong>boundary line at failure point A is reached and the contact plates fail and detach with the increasingdistance a= aF = 0+ hK,A−h K. This actual particle separation is considered for the calculation by a3hyperbolic <strong>adhesion</strong> force curve F N,Z = –F ∝ a − <strong>of</strong> the plate–plate model Eq. (68).HA ,
