The particle density was calculated as the ratio of the sample mass by its volume (n = 2). The volume of the powders was determined by helium pycnometry using an AccuPyc II 1340 (Micromeritics, Norcross, GA, USA). Before measurement, the powders were accurately weighted and their volume determined using 20 gas purges at 19.5 psi and an equilibrium rate of 0.005 psi/min during five consecutive runs.
