Ultrasound – sound so high it cannot be heard – is normally used to smash particles apart in water. In a recent study, the team of researchers, led by 9IÖÆ×÷³§Ãâ·Ñ professor Jake Barralet, from the faculties of Dentistry and Medicine, found that if particles were coated with phosphate, they could instead bond together into strong agglomerates, about the size of grains of sand. Their results are published in the journal Advanced Materials.</div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-primary-image field-type-image field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><img class="no-float" src="/channels/files/channels/styles/wysiwyg_medium/public/channels/image/auorfyycx-yk_cxafqzaidbiemkfgufuwi2mbivy6uegtcdyfhhiuyrcbfge-xkcpig1kbhauq7hm13uzsgsrg.jpg?itok=Ah15QERL" width="160" height="151" /></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-published-date field-type-datestamp field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><div class="custom-multi-date"><div class="multi-date first"><span class="label">Published: </span><span class="day">31 </span><span class="month">July </span><span class="year">2013</span></div></div></div></div></div> Wed, 31 Jul 2013 15:25:28 +0000 webfull 97448 at /channels
