To provide a dispersibility evaluation method, a
screening method and a dispersibility prediction method of a dispersion
system having three components of a
powder, a dispersant and a dispersion medium as constituent components, and to provide a
system capable of proposing a combination of the constituent components having high dispersibility.SOLUTION: One constituent component is specified from a
powder, a dispersion medium, and a dispersant which are constituent components of a dispersion
system, and then, with respect to a dispersant-treated
powder obtained by surface-treating a powder with a dispersant in advance and an untreated powder for a plurality of constituent components, a mean particle
diameter in a dispersion obtained by mixing each of the powders with the dispersion medium is measured, the suitability of each constituent component is determined according to a parameter based on the mean particle
diameter, and a Hansen sphere forming a boundary between the two is obtained. The dispersibility is evaluated based on the distance between the center position coordinate of the Hansen sphere and the position coordinate of the
Hansen solubility parameter of the specific component to be evaluated.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
