You wish to prepare a tape-casting slip containing 50 vol% Al2O3 and 50 vol% polyvinyl butyral (PVB) binder. If the density of A

l2O3 is 3.98 g/cm and that of PVB is 1.08 g/cm?, how many of grams of PVB are required to produce 1000 g of tape?

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of PVB required to produce 1000 grams of tape is 213.4 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the mass of aluminium oxide, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}       .......(1)

  • <u>For Al_2O_3</u>

We are given:

50% (v/v) of Al_2O_3

This means that 50 mL of aluminium oxide is present in 100 mL of tape

Calculating the mass of aluminium oxide by using equation 1:

Density of aluminium oxide = 3.98 g/cm^3

Volume of aluminium oxide = 50mL=50cm^3     (Conversion factor:  1mL=1cm^3 )

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

3.98g/cm^3=\frac{\text{Mass of aluminium oxide}}{50cm^3}\\\\\text{Mass of aluminium oxide}=(3.98g/cm^3\times 50cm^3)=199g

Mass of aluminium oxide = 199 g

  • <u>For PVB:</u>

We are given:

50% (v/v) of PVB

This means that 50 mL of PVB is present in 100 mL of tape

Calculating the mass of PVB by using equation 1:

Density of PVB = 1.08 g/cm^3

Volume of PVB = 50mL=50cm^3

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

1.08g/cm^3=\frac{\text{Mass of PVB}}{50cm^3}\\\\\text{Mass of PVB}=(1.08g/cm^3\times 50cm^3)=54g

Mass of PVB = 54 g

Mass of tape = Mass of aluminium oxide + mass of PVB

Mass of tape = [199 + 54] g = 253 g

To calculate the mass of PVB required to produce 1000 g of tape, we use unitary method:

When 253 grams of tape is made, the mass of PVB required is 54 g

So, when 1000 grams of tape is made, the mass of PVB required will be = \frac{54}{253}\times 1000=213.4g

Hence, the mass of PVB required to produce 1000 grams of tape is 213.4 grams
