Abstract:
Electrostatics of aerosols for inhalation is a relatively new research area. Charge properties of these particles are largely unknown but electrostatic forces have been proposed to potentially influence lung deposition. Investigation on the relationship between formulation and aerosol charging is required to understand the fundamental mechanisms.

The various topics investigated in the course of the preparation of this thesis can by unified under the common theme of fibrous fIltration enhancement from both experimental and theoretical perspectives. Fibrous filtration is by far the most common method of gas pUrification in use today and further improvements will require a better understanding of the various mechanisms contributing to the collection of particles.

Abstract:
Traditional aerosol samplers are limited in their abilities to collect large quantities of particulate matter due to their low flow rates, high pressure drops, and are noise intrusiveness. The goal of this study was to develop an alternate aerosol sampler using electrostatic precipitation technology that was safe and not noise intrusive to be deployed in homes. The O-Ion B-1000 was selected as the most suitable electrostatic precipitator (ESP) for achieving the goal of this study because of its affordability, the design of its collection electrode and its high flow rate.

Abstract:
While electrostatic effects are well known and can be observed all around us, it remains among the most poorly understood areas of physics. Pharmaceutical aerosols delivered by dry powder inhalers (DPIs) are known to carry bipolar charges that may influence lung deposition. Although the relationship between the magnitude and polarity of charges on total and regional lung deposition in human subjects is unclear, an important step towards understanding this relationship requires the accurate measurement of pharmaceutical aerosol charges. Hence, this thesis is focused on characterising electrosta

Abstract:
Dry powders for inhalation, although clinically effective, tend to be inefficient in terms of the extent and reproducibility of drug delivery. In part at least this is due to an inadequate understanding of the relevant particle-particle interactions between drug and drug, and drug and carrier. Electrostatic charge interactions are one of several factors influencing the overall efficiency of an inhalation powder. The practical significance of such interactions is considered to be critical in every aspect of the powder formulation, including the formation of an ordered mix and, more importantly,

Abstract:
Cascade impactors, routinely used for in vitro particle size characterization of pharmaceutical aerosols, are calibrated using dilute, charge-neutralized, monodisperse aerosols. But pharmaceutical aerosols are known to generate concentrated, inherently charged, polydisperse aerosol clouds. A computational model of the Andersen Cascade Impactor (ACI) suggested that the presence of charge on aerosol particles may influence their deposition within the ACI, but experimental validation of the model is warranted.

The aim of this thesis was to investigate the fundamental elements that influence aerosol electrostatic charge and performance of pressurised metered dose inhalers (pMDI). This was achieved by focusing on both physical and chemical parameters of the pMDI system, including orifice materials, geometries and formulation parameters. The electrostatic charges generated from pMDIs were successfully quantified using a modified Electrical Low Pressure Impactor (ELPI) and the magnitude and polarity of aerosol charges were found to be dependent on the actuator materials, nozzle geometries and the formul

Abstract:
Relative humidity (RH) or moisture content in the environment is an imperative factor that needs to be considered when it comes to the stability-related issues of inhaled dry powder formulations. Spray drying is one primary used technique for producing inhalable powders. However, it is a process that often leaves the powders amorphous and physically unstable. The existence of amorphous materials in pharmaceutical powders can affect the processing, storage, and delivery properties. If stored improperly, amorphous powders would absorb relatively large amounts of water from the surrounding, impac

The Laser Ablation of Microparticle Aerosols (LAMA) process produces nanoparticles by ablating microparticles that are entrained in an aerosol. Two of the main advantages of this process are that the particles produced are charged (preventing agglomeration) and bare (without a capping layer). Two different techniques are possible to collect the nanoparticles. In this work, the charged state of the particles formed was utilized to collect them electrostatically. This approach has the additional advantage that particles can be selected according to their size. The focus here was a particular app
