Dielectric particles in an applied electric field tend to form chains           aligned parallel to the field.  This research will measure the force            between chained dielectric particles and the effective dipole moment            of the chain as functions of the particle type, particle size, and              chain length.  These measurements will be made in an improved                   dielectrophoretic levitation apparatus.  A theory for the                       interparticle force will be developed paying special attention to non-          linear electrical effects arising from the high field in the small gap          between adjacent particles.                                                                                                                                     The dielectric force and particle chaining play essential roles in              electrorheology for the control of properties of particle suspensions           and in xerographic printing with toner particles.  The current                  research should aid the engineering of these processes which until now          have remained largely based on empiricism.
