| contents | During the mechano-fusion process for dry particle coating, (hetero)-aggregates are formed consisting of host particles which are coated by smaller guest particles. During this process, the latter are exposed to intense particle-particle interactions and particle-wall impacts, which lead to deformation of the guest particles original shape. These deformations on the nano- and microscale can heavily influence the effective macroscopic properties of the resutling coated particles. We present a method to quantify the shape deformation of guest particles during mechano-fusion based on measurements acquired by atomic force microscopy before and after mechano-fusion. To this end, we reconstruct the 3D shape of guest particles by means of an ellipsoidal fit, constrained by the known volume of the guest particles. Using these reconstructed shapes, we can quantify the degree of deformation by comparing the aspect ratios of the ellipsoidal fits before and after mechano-fusion. Such a quantification enhances the understanding of how process-related parameters influence the geometric descriptors of the involved particles, which in turn impact the overall macroscopic properties of the material. |
