Abstract

The influence of polyethyleneimine (PEI) addition on the crystal size distribution (CSD) of Au was investigated. PEI is a water‐soluble cationic polyelectrolyte acting as a reducer of AuCl~4~^–^ and a stabilizer of precipitated Au nanocrystals. The CSD can be controlled by the PEI dosage, and an increase in PEI dosage decreased both the size and the size distribution width of the obtained Au nanocrystals. The idea of PEI‐assisted reductive crystallization of Au may be helpful in the production of nanometals by using a simple batch crystallizer.

When separating two immiscible liquids with a hydrocyclone a change of the entrance droplet size distribution occurs within the flow field of the hydrocyclone. This change, caused by droplet breakup and/or coalescence, has a decisive influence on the separation efficiency and has to be taken into ac
