Book The Effects of Particle Anisotropy on the Rheology and Microstructure of Concentrated Colloidal Suspensions Through the Shear Thickening Transition

Download or read book The Effects of Particle Anisotropy on the Rheology and Microstructure of Concentrated Colloidal Suspensions Through the Shear Thickening Transition written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though suspensions comprised of anisotropic particles are ubiquitous in industry, little has been done to elucidate the effects of particle anisotropy on concentrated suspension rheology, or the mechanism responsible for the reversible shear thickening observed in these systems. This dissertation explores the rheology and shear-induced microstructure of anisotropic particle suspensions through the shear thickening transition, and provides the first account of anisotropic particle alignment during shear thickening. For this investigation, Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-based suspensions of acicular precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) particles of varying particle aspect ratio (nominal L/D & sim; 2, 4, 7) are generated that demonstrate both continuous and discontinuous reversible shear thickening with increasing applied shear rate or stress. The critical volume fraction for the onset of discontinuous shear thickening decreases as the average particle aspect ratio is increased. However, the critical stress for shear thickening is found to be independent of particle anisotropy and volume fraction, and can be predicted based on the minor axis dimension of the particles in agreement with the critical stress scaling for hard-sphere suspensions. Small angle neutron scattering during shear flow (Rheo-SANS) demonstrates that long-axis particle alignment with the flow direction is maintained throughout the range of shear stresses investigated, including the shear thickening regimes for both continuous and discontinuous shear thickening PCC/PEG suspensions. Investigations of particle flow alignment following flow cessation provide evidence that the critical volume fraction for shear thickening may be associated with an isotropic-nematic transition within the anisotropic particle suspensions. Rheo-SANS investigations of concentrated kaolin clay suspensions demonstrate that disk-shaped particles exhibit particle alignment with the face surfaces orthogonal to the gradient direction during both continuous and discontinuous shear thickening. The critical stress at the onset of shear thickening for discontinuous shear thickening clay suspensions is observed to scale with the particle thickness dimension. The rheology and Rheo-SANS observations for both the acicular PCC and disk-like kaolin clay suspensions invalidate earlier hypothesis suggesting that shear thickening behavior in anisotropic particle dispersions results from increased particle rotations out of flow alignment potentially leading to particle jamming. Rather, the observations suggest that shear thickening in anisotropic particle suspensions is a consequence of short range hydrodynamic lubrication forces resulting in the formation of hydroclusters at higher shear rates, analogous to the behavior established for spherical particle suspensions. Lastly, anisotropic particle suspensions are used to successfully develop of shear thickening fluid (STF)/ballistic fabric composites. Shape anisotropy imparts the advantage of lower solids loading required to achieve energy dissipative improvements compared to spherical particle STFs. The observed improvements in ballistic and stab resistance response of these composites over that of ballistic fabrics alone suggests that they could potentially be used in the development of personal body armors with improved, multi-threat protective capabilities.

Book The Rheology and Roll to roll Processing of Shear thickening Particle Dispersions

Download or read book The Rheology and Roll to roll Processing of Shear thickening Particle Dispersions written by Sunilkumar Khandavalli and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Particle dispersions are ubiquitous in our daily lives ranging from food and pharmaceutical products to inks. There has been great interest in the recent years in formulation of functional inks to fabricate myriad flexible electronic devices through high-throughput roll-to-roll technologies. The formulations often contain several functional additives or rheological modifiers that can affect the microstructure, rheology and processing. Understanding the rheology of formulations is important for tuning the formulation for optimal processing. This thesis presents investigations on the rheology of particle dispersions and their impact on roll-to-roll technologies. Shear-thickening behavior is common in particle dispersions, particularly, concentrated particulate inks. We have investigated the elongational rheology of a shear-thickening particle dispersions. We find that, an optimal polymer concentration resulted in a strong strain-hardening behavior with a magnitude that is significantly larger than the shear-thickening magnitude. Understanding the non-linear viscoelastic behavior of materials is very important, as deformations in applications are typically large. The rheology of three shear thickening dispersions with different thickening mechanisms was studied. Strong differences in the viscoelastic non-linearities in the three shear-thickening dispersions were observed. We next study the impact of rheology of shear thickening particle dispersions in gravure printing and slot die coating processes. In gravure printing, an efficient transfer of ink from gravure cell to the substrate is desired to print patterns with good print quality for desired product performance. We have conducted a study on how a shear thickening rheology impacts the amount of ink transfer. Distinct ink transfer behaviors associated with an extensional thickening, and an extensional thinning of the test fluids were observed. In a slot-die coating process, obtaining highly thin uniform defect free films at high speeds is a challenge. We have investigated the role of shear-thickening rheology on the stability of coating and the process window. The onset of shear-thickening was found to reduce the maximum web speeds for stable coating through the evolution of a ribbing defect. The presented investigations on the rheology of particle dispersions and their influence on roll-to-roll processing behavior would enable tuning of ink formulations and optimizing the process parameters towards fabrication of flexible electronics.

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)
