Download or read book Suspensions of Colloidal Particles and Aggregates written by Frank Babick and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-04 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the properties of particles in colloidal suspensions. It has a focus on particle aggregates and the dependency of their physical behaviour on morphological parameters. For this purpose, relevant theories and methodological tools are reviewed and applied to selected examples. The book is divided into four main chapters. The first of them introduces important measurement techniques for the determination of particle size and interfacial properties in colloidal suspensions. A further chapter is devoted to the physico-chemical properties of colloidal particles—highlighting the interfacial phenomena and the corresponding interactions between particles. The book’s central chapter examines the structure-property relations of colloidal aggregates. This comprises concepts to quantify size and structure of aggregates, models and numerical tools for calculating the (light) scattering and hydrodynamic properties of aggregates, and a discussion on van-der-Waals and double layer interactions between aggregates. It is illustrated how such knowledge may significantly enhance the characterisation of colloidal suspensions. The final part of the book refers to the information, ideas and concepts already presented in order to address technical aspects of the preparation of colloidal suspensions—in particular the performance of relevant dispersion techniques and the stability of colloidal suspensions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Attractive particulate fluids flowing through complex confined geometries are frequently used in technological applications. While the flow properties of hard-sphere suspensions in micro-scale geometries have been studied extensively, the effects of interparticle attractions and particle size dispersity on the confined flow properties of particulate suspensions are not well understood. We used confocal microscopy, particle tracking, and bulk rheology to study the confined structure, dynamics, and flow properties of colloid-polymer mixtures, which serve as simple models of attractive particulate suspensions. We employed poly(methyl-methacrylate) spheres that were suspended in a refractive-index and density- matched solvent, and induced a controlled short-range depletion attraction between particles by adding non-absorbing linear polystyrene. First, we investigated the effects of particle size dispersity on confinement-induced solidification of colloid-polymer mixtures. We formulated mixtures of polymer and bidispersed colloids with particle size ratio aS/aL ≈ 0.49 at a constant total volume fraction fT and measured the dynamics of the large particles as a function of the volume fraction of large particles. The dynamics of large particles became slower as the volume fraction of large particles r=fL/fT was decreased or the confinement thickness was decreased, indicating increasingly solid-like behavior. Second, we investigated the effects of variation in particle size dispersity r on the rheology and microstructure of mixtures of polymer and bidispersed colloids. Significant changes in rheology and microstructure were observed only at high volume fractions of large particles. By contrast, dense suspensions fT = 0.40 were strong gels at all concentration of large particles and exhibited only modest rheological and microstructural changes. Finally, we investigated the effects of variation in interparticle attractions on the microchannel flow of colloid-polymer mixtures. In suspensions with weak interparticle attractions, the number density of particles increased downstream in the channel due to shear-induced migration and consolidation by compression. In suspensions with stronger interparticle attractions, an interconnected network of particles suppressed these mechanisms and prevented the increase in density downstream. Together, our results indicate that the confined structure, dynamics, and flow properties of attractive colloidal suspensions can be controllably tuned from fluid-like to solid-like by varying the interparticle attractions and the particle size dispersity.

Download or read book Soft Matter Volume 2 written by Gerhard Gompper and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2006-02-10 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soft Matter encompasses a wide range of systems of varying components, including synthetic and biological polymers, colloids, and amphiphiles. The distinguishing features of these systems is their characteristic size, which is much larger than that of their atomic counterparts, and their characteristic energy, which is much smaller. Because of their ability to assemble themselves into complex structures, they form the major components of biological systems and technological applications. This second volume of the unique interdisciplinary "Soft Matter" series comprehensively describes colloids and their properties. The structural and thermodynamic properties of mixtures of rod-like and spherical colloids and of mixtures colloids and polymers, as well as the dynamical behavior of rod-like colloids are treated in depth. Again leading scientists have contributed articles that both introduce readers to this field, and serve as a source of reference for experts.
Download or read book Accelerated Lattice Boltzmann Model for Colloidal Suspensions written by Hassan Farhat and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-04-12 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colloids are ubiquitous in the food, medical, cosmetics, polymers, water purification, and pharmaceutical industries. The thermal, mechanical, and storage properties of colloids are highly dependent on their interface morphology and their rheological behavior. Numerical methods provide a convenient and reliable tool for the study of colloids. Accelerated Lattice Boltzmann Model for Colloidal Suspensions introduce the main building-blocks for an improved lattice Boltzmann–based numerical tool designed for the study of colloidal rheology and interface morphology. This book also covers the migrating multi-block used to simulate single component, multi-component, multiphase, and single component multiphase flows and their validation by experimental, numerical, and analytical solutions. Among other topics discussed are the hybrid lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) for surfactant-covered droplets; biological suspensions such as blood; used in conjunction with the suppression of coalescence for investigating the rheology of colloids and microvasculature blood flow. The presented LBM model provides a flexible numerical platform consisting of various modules that could be used separately or in combination for the study of a variety of colloids and biological flow deformation problems.

Download or read book Colloids and the Depletion Interaction written by Henk N.W. Lekkerkerker and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-05-12 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colloids are submicron particles that are ubiquitous in nature (milk, clay, blood) and industrial products (paints, drilling fluids, food). In recent decades it has become clear that adding depletants such as polymers or small colloids to colloidal dispersions allows one to tune the interactions between the colloids and in this way control the stability, structure and rheological properties of colloidal dispersions. This book offers a concise introduction to the fundamentals of depletion effects and their influence on the phase behavior of colloidal dispersions. Throughout the book, conceptual explanations are accompanied by experimental and computer simulation results. From the review by Kurt Binder: "They have succeeded in writing a monograph that is a very well balanced compromise between a very pedagogic introduction, suitable for students and other newcomers, and reviews of the advanced research trends in the field. Thus each chapter contains many and up to date references, but in the initial sections of the chapters, there are suggested exercises which will help the interested reader to recapitulate the main points of the treatment and to deepen his understanding of the subject. Only elementary knowledge of statistical thermodynamics is needed as a background for understanding the derivations presented in this book; thus this text is suitable also for advanced teaching purposes, useful of courses which deal with the physics for soft condensed matter. There does not yet exist any other book with a similar scope..... The readability of this book is furthermore enhanced by a list of symbols, and index of keywords, and last not least by a large number of figures, including many pedagogic sketches which were specifically prepared for this book. Thus, this book promises to be very useful for students and related applied sciences alike." Eur. Phys. J. E (2015) 38: 73
