Book excerpt: Colloidal dispersions are commonly encountered in everyday life and represent an important class of complex fluid. Of particular significance for many commercial products and industrial processes is the ability to control and manipulate the macroscopic flow response of a dispersion by tuning the microscopic interactions between the constituents. An important step towards attaining this goal is the development of robust theoretical methods for predicting from first-principles the rheology and nonequilibrium microstructure of well defined model systems subject to external flow. In this review we give an overview of some promising theoretical approaches and the phenomena they seek to describe, focusing, for simplicity, on systems for which the colloidal particles interact via strongly repulsive, spherically symmetric interactions. In presenting the various theories, we will consider first low volume fraction systems, for which a number of exact results may be derived, before moving on to consider the intermediate and high volume fraction states which present both the most interesting physics and the most demanding technical challenges. In the high volume fraction regime particular emphasis will be given to the rheology of dynamically arrested states.

Download or read book Colloidal Dispersions written by William Bailey Russel and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers the physical side of colloidal science from the individual forces acting between particles smaller than a micrometer that are suspended in a liquid, through the resulting equilibrium and dynamic properties. A variety of internal forces both attractive and repulsive act in conjunction with Brownian motion and the balance between them all decides the phase behaviour. On top of this various external fields, such as gravity or electromagnetic fields, diffusion and non-Newtonian rheology produce complex effects, each of which is of important scientific and technological interest. The authors aim to impart a sound, quantitative understanding based on fundamental theory and experiments with well-characterised model systems. This broad grasp of the fundamentals lends insight and helps to develop the intuitive sense needed to isolate essential features of the technological problems and design critical experiments. The main prerequisites for understanding the book are basic fluid mechanics, statistical mechanics and electromagnetism, though self contained reviews of each subject are provided at appropriate points. Some facility with differential equations is also necessary. Exercises are included at the end of each chapter, making the work suitable as a textbook for graduate courses in chemical engineering or applied mathematics. It will also be useful as a reference for individuals in academia or industry undertaking research in colloid science.

  • ISBN : 3527632395
  • Pages : 218 pages

Download or read book Rheology of Dispersions written by Tharwat F. Tadros and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-07-18 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A dispersion is a system of unmixable phases in which one phase is continuous and at least one is finely distributed. Examples are found in many industrial applications, including emulsions, suspensions, foams, and geld. The control of their flow characteristics - rheology - is essential in their preparation, long-term physical stability and application. Filling the need for a practical, up-to-date book connecting the stability/instability of the dispersion to its rheological behavior, this title aids in understanding the principles of rheology and the techniques that can be applied. From the contents: * General Introduction * Interparticle Interactions and Their Combination * Principles of Viscoelastic Behavior * Rheology of Suspensions * Rheology of Emulsions * Rheology of Modifiers, Thickeners, and Gels * Use of Rheological Measurements for Assessment and Prediction of the Long-Term Physical Stability of Formulations (Creaming and Sedimentation)

Book Microstructure and Rheology of Concentrated Suspensions of Near Hard sphere Colloids

Download or read book Microstructure and Rheology of Concentrated Suspensions of Near Hard sphere Colloids written by Dennis P. Kalman and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between colloidal suspension microstructure and rheology is investigated to provide a solid understanding of the nonlinear rheology of concentrated suspensions, with a focus on shear thickening. These suspensions are also studied as a treatment to woven fabric in body-armor applications, where the insight from microstructural measurements is used to attempt to improve the application. The colloid and suspension properties are characterized via SEM, DLS, SANS, USANS, and rheometry. The rheology is mapped onto an effective hard-sphere model with the addition of a yield stress. An additional excluded volume shell, as measured by SANS and USANS structural measurements, accounts for interparticle interactions due to surface forces arising from the stabilizing layer on the particles. The microstructure of these near hard-sphere concentrated, shear-thickening colloidal dispersions are measured via SANS and USANS as a function of volume fraction, shear rate, and particle size. Special Rheo-SANS, flow-SANS, and flow-USANS instruments are developed and validated to measure microstructure in flowing systems. Structures measured via USANS show a cluster peak that arises from hydrocluster formation in concentrated, shear thickening suspensions. Structure measurements in SANS via 1-d averaged analysis and analysis of the 2-d structure corresponds to that expected from Stokesian Dynamics simulations. Micromechanics theory via a Stress-SANS law is used to calculate rheology from the microstructure for comparison. As the rheology calculated from the SANS data qualitatively agrees with that of the suspension and the structures seen correspond to those expected from simulations, strong confirmation of the hydrocluster mechanism for shear thickening is observed. This improved knowledge of the hydrocluster structure is used to develop an elastohydrodynamic theory for the limiting viscosity at high shear stresses due to particle deformations in the hydrocluster. Measurements of particle modulus give consistent application of this elastohydrodynamic model to suspensions studied in this thesis. In addition, the model is applied to widely varying suspensions, including those of hard mineral particles, polymer particles, microgels, and emulsions and consistent results are seen. The results of these fundamental studies of how particle size, concentration, and hardness affect suspension microstructure and rheology are used to engineer shear thickening fluid treated textiles, suitable for various types of protective devices.

  • Author : J W Goodwin
  • Publisher : Royal Society of Chemistry
  • Release : 2019-04-05
  • ISBN : 1788018257
  • Pages : 277 pages

Download or read book Rheology for Chemists written by J W Goodwin and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 2019-04-05 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rheology is primarily concerned with materials: scientific, engineering and everyday products whose mechanical behaviour cannot be described using classical theories. From biological to geological systems, the key to understanding the viscous and elastic behaviour firmly rests in the relationship between the interactions between atoms and molecules and how this controls the structure, and ultimately the physical and mechanical properties. Rheology for Chemists An Introduction takes the reader through the range of rheological ideas without the use of the complex mathematics. The book gives particular emphasis on the temporal behaviour and microstructural aspects of materials, and is detailed in scope of reference. An excellent introduction to the newer scientific areas of soft matter and complex fluid research, the second edition also refers to system dimension and the maturing of the instrumentation market. This book is a valuable resource for practitioners working in the field, and offers a comprehensive introduction for graduate and post graduates. "... well-suited for self-study by research workers and technologists, who, confronted with technical problems in this area, would like a straightforward introduction to the subject of rheology." Chemical Educator, "... full of valuable insights and up-to-date information." Chemistry World

Book Complex Plasmas And Colloidal Dispersions  Particle resolved Studies Of Classical Liquids And Solids

Download or read book Complex Plasmas And Colloidal Dispersions Particle resolved Studies Of Classical Liquids And Solids written by Alexei Ivlev and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 2012-05-30 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many fundamental issues in classical condensed matter physics can be addressed experimentally using systems of individually visible mesoscopic particles playing the role of “proxy atoms”. The interaction between such “atoms” is determined by the properties of the surrounding medium and/or by external tuning. The best-known examples of such experimental model systems are two different domains of soft matter — complex plasmas and colloidal dispersions.The major goal of this book — written by scientists representing both complex plasmas and colloidal dispersions — is to bring the two fields together. In the first part of the book the basic properties of the two systems are summarized, demonstrating huge conceptual and methodological overlap of the fields and emphasizing numerous cross-connections between them and their essential complementarity. This “introductory part” should serve to help each community in understanding the other field better. Simultaneously, this provides the necessary basis for the second part focused on particle-resolved studies of diverse generic phenomena in liquids and solids — all performed with complex plasmas and/or colloidal dispersions. The book is concluded with the discussion of critical open issues and fascinating perspectives of such interdisciplinary research.
