Abstract
Micro-thermal field-flow fractionation was used to characterize the particle size distribution of nanometer-sized diamond nanoparticles. Although the experimental conditions were chosen to perform high-speed separation, and, consequently, the resolution achieved experimentally was not very high, the application of the original correction method for the zone spreading allowed for obtaining of very good calculated particle size distribution or, explicitly, a true polydispersity index of the diamond nanoparticle sample. The future use of several samples of diamond nanoparticles of different average sizes and different surface chemistries should allow deeper insight into the effect of these particulate characteristics on the retention in micro-thermal field-flow fractionation.
