    The electrostatic force between a uniformly charged dielectric particle and a conducting plane was carefully calculated including the effect of higher-order polarizations. The potential distribution problem was solved using spherical coordinates by considering the symmetry of the image and using a re-expansion technique of the Legendre functions. On the basis of the results, the electrostatic force was calculated using the orthogonality of the Legendre terms. In this method, numerical calculations are required for each condition, such as the contact gaps and the dielectric constants of the particle. This would be avoidable if an approximate formula was available. Thus, for convenience, an approximate formula was searched for by trial and error, and Fe=Fe(d=0)/{1+(d/a)α}β was found to be a good approximation. This was the simple expansion of the contact gap dependence of the particle with a relative dielectric constant ε=1, i. e., with no effect of polarization.

    The production of monodispersed fine TiO2 particles by Three-Phase Alkoxide Method was examined in a three-phase reactor of titanium tetraisopropoxide (TTIP) ethanol solution by the addition of water vapor, under various operating conditions. The rate of water vapor supplied to the reactor and the flow rate of the carrier gas ranged from 0.15 to 0.36g/min and from 3600 to 6000ml/min, respectively.
    It was possible to obtain monodispersed fine TiO2 particles under almost all of the operating conditions examined. The rate of water supplied was found to affect the fractional conversion to fine TiO2 particles and the particle size of the products.

    Ca(OH)2 particles were precipitated by hydrolysis of a Ca(OC2H5)2 solution with irradiation of ultrasonic wave. The mechanism of the formation of dispersed fine particles was studied by particle size analysis and SEM observation of the samples during the precipitation of particles. The agglomeration of Ca(OH)2 primary particles of 20-30nm in diameter takes place to produce agglomerates with a size of 10-100μm. The agglomerates were subdivided into small clusters with a size of 0.2-0.5μm by ultrasonic irradiation and were stably dispersed in ethanol for at least one month. On the other hand, the effect of stirring during ultrasonic irradiation was found to prevent the stable dispersion of fine particles.

    Ultra-fine mullite precursor powders were prepared by the hydrolysis of molecular-designed Al, Si-complex alkoxide. The surface areas of the resulting mullite powders derived from sol-gel route varied depending upon the aging and/or drying condition. This was due to the different agglomeration states of their primary particles, which precipitated by the hydrolysis of the precursor solutions. A thin electrical double layer was formed on the primary particles of the solvents with low dielectric constants, and then primary particles agglomerated into coarse secondary agglomerates, leading to mullite powders with high surface areas even after high-temperature calcination. A thick electrical double layer on the primary particles resulted in the uniform packing, which formed relatively dense secondary agglomerates during drying. This resulted in the lower surface areas when solvents with high dielectric constants were used during aging. This agglomeration behavior was confirmed by pore-size distributions and the observation of SEM of the mullite powders.
