In the previous study, different structures of hoppers were proposed. And the dust suppression performance of hoppers were evaluated. In this paper, different materials of hoppers were selected.And influence of different material on particle behaviors were studied based on the discrete element method (DEM). Results shows that the wall material with low collision recovery coefficient for the hopper has positive effect on suppressing dust diffusion.and the wall material with high static friction coefficient showed little effect on the particle flow state through the hopper.
