Book The Adsorption of Nanoparticles at the Solid liquid Interface

Download or read book The Adsorption of Nanoparticles at the Solid liquid Interface written by Dan Xu and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study aims to investigate the adsorption of nanoparticles at the solid-water interface. Surface treatments with nanoparticles have been increasingly explored for a broad range of potential applications. However, the adsorption behaviour of inorganic nanoparticles has not been well studied to-date. Nanoparticle adsorption can be affected by several factors, such as the type of solid substrate, nanoparticle shape, nanoparticle concentration and salt concentration in the nanoparticle suspension, Two types of nanoparticles are used in this thesis: spherical Ludox silica (20 nm) and disk-like laponite clay (25 nm across, 1 nm thick). The adsorption of Laponite nanoparticles at the solid-water interface on various substrates and over a range of Laponite concentrations has been investigated using a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) and an optical reflectometer (OR). Adsorption of laponite was only observed on a positively charged poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDADMAC) surface, whereas no adsorption was seen on hydrophilic/hydrophobic, negative or neutrally charged surfaces. This shows that when fully wetted, Laponite adsorption depends primarily on the surface charge. The adsorption of both Laponite and Ludox silica onto PDADMAC coated surfaces over the first few seconds were studied by OR. The initial adsorption rate of Laponite was faster than Ludox, possibly due to reorientation of the laponite nanoparticles as they approach the substrate. Over longer times, the QCM data for Ludox III nanopartic1es demonstrated more complex adsorption behaviour than Laponite, demonstrating intermixing processes taking place within the PDADMAC-Ludox layer. The effect of a monovalent salt (NaCI) on the adsorption behaviour of both PDADMAC and Ludox nanopartic1es was also investigated using QCM. These data suggest that the adsorbed amount of Ludox increase with NaCI concentration. This can be explained by the roughening of the PDADMAC surface at high salt concentrations leading to more Ludox nanopartic1es adsorbing per unit area. Preliminary evidence for less intermixing between the PDADMAC and the Ludox when the PDADMAC layer was adsorbed and then pre-dried was also found.

Book Study of Adsorption of Biological and Nanoparticle Solutions at the Solid liquid Interface

Download or read book Study of Adsorption of Biological and Nanoparticle Solutions at the Solid liquid Interface written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With advances in micromechanical machining and nanotechnology, the sample volume needed for biological research and other analysis decreases. With small volume, sample-surface interactions including adsorption must be considered. These adsorption effects can be observed by analyzing light reflected from the solid-liquid interface, and the contact angle of a solution on the surface. Presented is the design and construction of an ellipsometer, a device used to analyze light reflected off of a solid-liquid interface to find interfacial properties, including thickness of a thin film formed by adsorption. The taq enzyme is shown to have a large change in contact angle from seventy degrees to about ten degrees over a short (ten minute) time period when placed on an SU-8 substrate, indicating a change in energy at the interface and a large amount of adsorption. Silane substrates are found to produce similar results. Ellipticity of a colloidal gold nanoparticle solution on a glass substrate is also observed, whose results are difficult to interpret due to bulk shifts in the sample. With the ellipsometer running correctly, it can be used for a number of experiments, including spectroscopic ellipsometry and Brewster angle microscopy, with some modifications.

Download or read book Adsorption From Solution written by R. H. Ottewill and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adsorption From Solution discusses the significance of adsorption behavior in thermodynamic terms, with emphasis on the interplay between enthalpic and entropic contributions to the free energy. This book examines the role of simple models and of elementary thermodynamic and statistical mechanical arguments in relation to the concept of surface phase. Organized into 22 chapters, this book starts with an overview of the theoretical model for the solid/liquid interface. This text then proceeds with a discussion of the general thermodynamic treatment of adsorption from mixed solvents, which is designed to apply in situations where adsorbed species may be regarded as distinct from their bulk counterparts. Other chapters discuss the adsorption from solutions of various interfaces of liquid/gas, liquid/liquid, or liquid/solid. The final chapter deals with the roles of adsorption from solution in controlling other phenomena, such as liquid–liquid displacement, wetting, and the forces between colloidal particles. Physicists, chemists, and materials scientists will find this book extremely useful.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the completion of sequencing projects and the advancement of a- lytical tools for protein identification, proteomics—the study of the expressed part of the genome—has become a major region of the burgeoning field of functional genomics. High-resolution 2-D gels can reveal virtually all p- teins present in a cell or tissue at any given time, including posttranslationally modified proteins. Changes in the expression and structure of most cellular proteins caused by differentiation or external stimuli can be displayed and eventually identified using 2-D protein gels. 2-D Proteome Analysis Protocols covers all aspects of the use of 2-D protein electrophoresis for the analysis of biological problems. The contri- tors include many of the leaders in the fields of biochemistry and analytical chemistry who were instrumental in the development of high-resolution 2-D gels, immobilized pH gradients, computer analysis, and mass spectromet- based protein identification methodologies. This book is intended as a benchtop manual and guide both for novices to 2-D gels and for those aficionados who wish to try the newer techniques. Any group using protein biochemistry—especially in the fields of molecular biology, biochemistry, microbiology, and cell biology—should find this book eminently useful. 2-D Proteome Analysis Protocols takes the researcher through the c- plete process of working with 2-D protein gels from making the protein - tract to finally identifying the proteins of interest. It includes protocols for generating 2-D protein extracts from most of the standard model organisms, including bacteria, yeast, nematode, Drosophila, plants, mouse, and human.

Book Adsorption of Particles on Fluid liquid Interfaces

Download or read book Adsorption of Particles on Fluid liquid Interfaces written by Bhavin Dalal and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Particles floating on fluid-liquid interfaces are of considerable interest because of their importance in a range of physical applications and biological processes, e.g., self-- assembly of particles at fluid-fluid interfaces resulting in novel nano structured materials, stabilization of emulsions, formation of pollen and insect egg rafts, etc. The aim of this dissertation is to explore the mechanism by which particles are adsorbed at fluid-liquid interfaces. It is shown that the inertia of a particle plays an important role in its motion in the direction normal to a fluid-liquid interface, and in determining the particles adsorption trajectory and orientation in the adsorbed state. Although the importance of inertia diminishes with decreasing particle size, on an air-water interface the inertia continues to be important even when the particle size is as small as a few nanometers. This dissertation also investigates the vertical oscillations of a particle while it is being adsorbed on an interface. The fact that the particle oscillates vertically implies that its behavior is similar to that of an under-damped mass-spring-dashpot system, and that it has characteristic linear and rotational frequencies which depend on the physical properties of the fluids involved and those of the particle. The experimentally measured frequency of oscillation of a particle is in approximate agreement with the frequency calculated analytically, which is noteworthy considering that the latter depends only on the fluid and particle properties, and that there are no adjustable parameters in the analytic expression. It is shown that similarly to an under-damped system, these characteristic frequencies can be excited by an external forcing. When a particle is adsorbed on a fluid-liquid interface it induces a relatively strong transient flow in the liquid which persists for several seconds. For a spherical particle the flow is axisymmetric about the vertical passing through the particle's center. To visualize this flow, an experiment is designed based of the Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) technique. The measurements show that the fluid directly below the particle rises up, and near the interface it moves away from the particle. The velocity near the interface is found to be about an order of magnitude larger than in the liquid below the particle.
