Modelling microsilica particle formation and growth due to the combustion reaction of silicon monoxide with oxygen

Microsilica particles arise as a byproduct of silicon furnace operation, created inside high temperature flames due to the combustion reaction of silicon monoxide with oxygen. These nanoparticles, which grow as silicon dioxide vapour condenses on the surface of existing particles, are used in a vari...
