| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It is known that nanoparticles become unstable due to the Kelvin effect as the size decreases. Unstable nanoparticles can shrink only by the operation of sorting the size. We studied how much the nanoparticle becomes smaller at the evaporation rate by size sorting by the differential mobility analyzer (DMA). For the purpose, we developed a novel double-layer DMA and a tandem DMA system that can measure the evaporation rate occurring in less than 1 second. Both devices demonstrated satisfactory performance and made it possible to measure the fast evaporation rate of fatty alcohol nanoparticles.
