pure and applied geophysics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Electrification of monodisperse powders of activated alumina is investigated, following adsorption of nitrous oxide. It is found that rates of electrical charging of porous particulates examined depend on rates of release of gas from the solid.
