Size and Shape Dependencies of Powder Resistivity

Powder resistivity is a key property influenced by particle physicality for many industrial uses. Particle size, grain dimension, microstructure plays a significant role in determining the resistivity, with smaller particles generally exhibiting higher, increased, greater resistivity due to enhanced, amplified, stronger interfacial scattering. Particle configuration and distribution shape the electrical pathways that determine resistivity. Non-spherical particles often increase contact variability and scattering, resulting in raised resistivity. Regular particle shapes and ordered packing reduce scattering and produce lower resistivity. Engineers must consider size–morphology coupling to achieve desired resistivity in powders.
