1 |  | Miller, Jan D. | Conformation of chemisorbed oleate at a calcite surface | The surface chemistry of the calcite/oleate flotation system was examined by in situ FT-NIR/IRS. Spectra of combination and overtone bands of aliphatic stretching vibrations revealed gauche/trans conformational changes that occurred solely as a function of temperature. The conformational changes wer... | chemisorption; oleate; calcite; gauche/trans conformation; rotational isomerism | 2001 |
2 |  | Miller, Jan D. | Dispersed oil impact on froth stability in flotation | Foam stability in flotation has been studied for more than half of the last century, however, the mechanisms responsible for the defoaming action of many presently used reagents are not completely understood. This research presents oil flotation data, which may be used in the evaluation of aqueous ... | froth control; foam control; oil flotation; polyoxyethylene 10 lauryl ether (C12E 10); isobutylcarbinol (MIBC) | 2001 |
3 |  | Miller, Jan D. | A new cone beam X-ray microtomography facility for 3D analysis of multiphase materials | Three-dimensional x-ray microtomography offers a unique imaging capability. Spatial resolution on the order of ten microns can be achieved with the use of microfocus x-ray generators. Recently, a state-of-the-art, flexible cone beam x-ray microtomography system has been installed at the University o... | | 2001-01-01 |
