Rheology of pigment dispersed system

Rheology of Titania Pigment Slurry

Titania is one of the most important white pigments currently used in the world with a total annual production of about 6 million [1]. Titania pigment slurry properties are very important for consumer industries such as paints, papermaking and plastics; if aggregates are present, the end-use properties including gloss, brightness, colour hue, opacity and storage stability will be highly affecte...

Silica Nanoparticles Dispersed in a Self-assembled Viscoelastic Matrix: Structure, Rheology, and Comparison to Reinforced Elastomers

Well dispersed fractal aggregates as filler in polymer-silica nanocomposites: long range effects in rheology

We are presenting a new method of processing polystyrene-silica nanocomposites, which results in a very well-defined dispersion of small primary aggregates (assembly of 15 nanoparticles of 10 nm diameter) in the matrix. The process is based on the use of a high boiling point solvent, in which the nanoparticles are well dispersed, and a controlled evaporation procedure. The filler's fine network...

Nano Dispersed Metal-Ceramic Composite Materials of the Ni-SiO2 system

In the organic field effect transistors (OFETs) generation, the silicon gate oxide is 1-2 nm thick. A shrinking of this thickness down to less than 1 nm for the next generation will led to a couple of orders of magnitude increase in tunnelling as well as leakage currents. NiO-SiO2 can be used in a variety of devices, such as in circuit boards and detectors, including sensors, due to its porous ...
