Abstract
Monodisperse nanometer size silver particles as small as 1 nm were gen erated by a new differential mobility analyzer and an IR ray furnace a t a concentration higher than 10(3) cm(-3). The test nanometer size pa rticles were introduced into stainless steel wire screens and circular aluminum tubes to investigate the particle rebound on solid surfaces. As a result, it was found that the particle rebound may increase the particles penetration through circular tubes when the particles are sm aller than 2 nm.
