Abstract
Drag force on micron-sized particles in an aqueous medium was determined and compared with that predicted by the Stokes’ law. Effect of a number of parameters such as surface morphology of particles, particle size, and so on on the drag force acting on the microparticles in an aqueous medium was systematically investigated. Surface morphology was found to strongly affect the drag force working on the microparticles. In addition surface charge, roughness, and physical nature of microparticles were also found involved in the alteration of the drag force.
