The rheological behavior of concentrated colloidal dispersions
A simple model for the rheological behavior of concentrated colloidal dispersions is developed. For a suspension of Brownian hard spheres there are two contributions to the macroscopic stress: a hydrodynamic and a Brownian stress. For small departures from equilibrium, the hydrodynamic contribution is purely dissipative and gives the high-frequency dynamic viscosity. The Brownian contribution h...
متن کاملJamming and unjamming of concentrated colloidal dispersions in channel flows†
We investigated the pressure driven flow of concentrated colloidal dispersions in a converging channel geometry. Optical microscopy and image analysis were used to track tracer particles mixed into dispersions of sterically stabilized poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) spheres. The dispersions were drawn into a round 0.5 mm capillary at one of two pump speeds (^ applied pressure): v1 1⁄4 0.245 ml...
متن کاملHydrodynamic and Colloidal Interactions in Concentrated Charge-Stabilized Polymer Dispersions.
Hydrodynamic and colloidal interactions are explored in concentrated, charge-stabilized colloidal dispersions by measuring the dependence of rheology (e.g., low and high-shear viscosity, high-frequency viscosity, and modulus) and self-diffusivity on salt content, particle size, and concentration. Model, sulfonated polystyrene lactices of varying diameter are prepared and investigated by shear r...

متن کاملAbsorption length for photon propagation in highly dense colloidal dispersions
The absorption length for photon propagation in highly concentrated colloidal dispersions calculated from temporal intensity profiles of 100 femto-second pulses is much longer than the absorption length obtained from the measurements of static light transmission in the pure continuous phase fluid. The difference between these two values is explained on the basis of small interparticle spacing a...
