<strong>Mechanics</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>nanoparticle</strong> <strong>adhesion</strong> — A <strong>continuum</strong> <strong>approach</strong> 29Figure 6. Characteristic elastic–plastic, viscoelastic–viscoplastic particle contact deformations (titania,primary particles d = 20–300 nm, surface diameter d S = 200 nm, median particle diameterd 50,3 = 610 nm, specific surface area A S,m = 12 m 2 /g, solid density ρ s = 3870 kg/m 3 , surface moistureX W = 0.4%, temperature θ = 20°C, loading time t = 24 h). The material data, modulus <strong>of</strong> elasticityE = 50 kN/mm 2 , modulus <strong>of</strong> relaxation E ∞ = 25 kN/mm 2 , relaxation time t relax = 24 h, plastic microyieldstrength p f = 400 N/mm 2 , contact viscosity η K = 1.8·10 14 Pa·s, Poisson ratio ν = 0.28, Hamakerconstant C H,sls = 12.6·10 -20 J, equilibrium separation for dipole interaction a F=0 = 0.336 nm, contactarea ratio κ A = 5/6 are assumed as appropriate for the characteristic contact properties. The plasticrepulsion coefficient κ p = 0.44 and viscoplastic repulsion coefficient κ p,t = 0.09 are recalculatedfrom shear-test data in a powder <strong>continuum</strong> [147, 149].
