Abstract
In this paper, differences of the particle size between the pine smoke powders and lampblack powders were studied. The results showed that the particle spectrum of the pine smoke powders was unimodal distribution, while it was bimodal for the tung lampblack powders. The average particle size, volume of lampblack powders were about 1/3 and 3% of the pine smoke powders, respectively. But the specific surface area of lampblack particles was 5 times more than the pine smoke particles, which revealed the fact that the lampblack powders were more exquisite than the pine smoke powders .
Highlights
Hui ink-stick, ranks in the second of China's "Four Treasures for Calligraphy", embodies lots of effort and sweat of many practitioners, it is very important in the development and spread of traditional Chinese culture[1,2,3,4,5,6]
During mass production of inkpine forest was seriously damaged as pines live a long growing season[9, 10]. While vegetable oil such as tung oil, rapeseed oil, soybean oil, etc. with short growing season are ecological materials[11]. In this papertaking the pine smoke powders and tung lampblack powders as examples, differences of the particle size and the feasibility of using lampblack to replace the pine smoke were studied based on the particle size distribution of both ink making materials
Results of the particle spectrum distribution of the pine smoke powders showed that the particle size ranged from 0.361 to 84.95 ȝm, mean volume diameter was 21.14 ȝm, mean area diameter was 9.461 ȝm, mean length diameter was 2.331 ȝm, median diameter was 19.11 ȝm, specific surface area was 234.8 m2/kg, the particle spectrum was unimodal distrbution and the peak was seen near 22 ȝm
