The surfactants used were pluronic F-68, span 20, Aerosol TR and Aerosol OT. Starch, in premix with either of the surfactants with concentration 0.5 to 2 were grinded in Netsch MiniCer® laboratory circulation machine (Netsch, Germany) at 25 Hz. Zicronium beads of 1mm diameter were used as the grinding media. At 0.5 hr grinding time, 0.5 pluronic reduced corn starch to the lowest size of 335 ± 5.57 nm. The other surfactants yielded particle size equal to or above 382 ±9.5 nm. However, with 1 hr grinding, 1 pluronic F-68 reduced the particle size of corn starch to the minimum level of 353 ±14.50 nm. At 1 hr grinding, the other surfactants reduced the size equal to or above 399 ± 9.50 nm. The lowest PDI was 0.393 ± 0.06 and 0.417 ± 0.02, respectively with 1 TR-OT at 0.5 hr and 2 TR-OT at 1 hr grinding. Pluronic demonstrated the highest efficiency in size reduction followed by ATR-AOT (1:4). date: 2008 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-53349127257&partnerID=40&md5=3551db628f29593bfc863728288bed32 full_text_status: none publication: Technical Proceedings of the 2008 NSTI Nanotechnology Conference and Trade Show, NSTI-Nanotech, Nanotechnology 2008 volume: 1 place_of_pub: Quebec City, QC pagerange: 356-359 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781420085075; 9781420085037 citation: Bukhari, N.I. and Kang, Y.B. and Hay, Y.K. and Majeed, A.B.A. and Nadeem, M. and Bai, S.H.
