  1. Chapter 8. Dispersion and Flocculation of Surfactants 2006.05.20.

  2. §1. Introduction • Dispersion – multi-phase dispersing system • S/G – dust , smoke, and so on ; • S/L – suspension (悬浮液) ; colloids (胶体) • dispersephase (分散相) – dispersed solids • dispersed medium (分散介质) – water • thermodynamic unstable systems – dispersants 2. Flocculation – destabilization (失稳定) of colloids • Static interactions between colloids • Steric interactions between colloids • Flocculating agents or Flocculants

  3. §2. Interfacial potential at interface of solid-liquid Interface potential – properties of S/L - electric double layer 1. The electrification (带电) at interface of solid-liquid • Ionization at interface solid-water – e.g. proteins , ion exchange resin , etc. protein possess isoelectric points as IEP pH > IEP to ionize anions or negative charge at S/L pH < IEP to ionize cations or positive charge at S/L • Adsorb the ions from bulk phase - in preference to adsorb anions or cations to electrify at S/L (a) Adsorption on Low Energy Surface - in preference to adsorb anions to possess negative charge. E.g. oil and

  4. Fat, synthetic fibres , and carbon etc. Reason : the cations are hydrated easier and more stable than anions in bulk water phase, so the anions are adsorbed easier than cations. (b) Indissoluble salts (难溶盐)– Fajans rule - homo ions (同离子)are adsobed easier by ionic crystal e.g. AgI colloid adsorbs the Ag+ ion in AgNO3 aq. to possess positive charge and the I- ion in KI aq. to possess negative charge. (c) Metallic oxide & Indissoluble hydroxid – e.g. SiO2, TiO2, ZnO2, and etc – possess Zero Electric Point (ZEP):

  5. If pH > ZEP, then in preference to adsorb OH- to possess negative charge on interface S/L If pH < ZEP, then in preference to adsorb H+ to possess positive charge on interface S/L (3) Triboelectrification (摩擦起电) – not only Solid – Water but also Solid – Organic medium. Reason : according to difference electron affinity between(电子亲合力) two phase, the electrons are ejected from one phase to another. Dielectric constant (介电常数) , electron affinity  Positive charge , contrarily negative charge e.g. glass = 5-6, benzene =2, water=81, aceton=21 G/Water, G/aceton – negative ; G/benzene – positive

  6. (4) Replace of crystal lattice – e.g. kaoline (高岭土), montmorillonite (蒙脱土), etc Mg++, Ca++ Al+++ negative charge 2. Electrical Double Layer Model • Helmholtz EDL - Plate Model Surface potential 0 = (4/D)  • - surface charge density • - thickness of Plate EDL,  very little ,no displaying electricity , neutral ,

  7. (2) Gouy-Chapman diffusion EDL • Outline as follow • Electrification at S/L interface, • Counter ions as a particle in solution phase • Diffusion EDL • Thermodynamics potential 0 • Interfacial potential  = 0 e-x • Thickness of diffusion EDL • = 1/ = (1000DkT/4NAe2CjZj2)1/2 e = 4.80×10-10, k= 1.38 ×10-16 erg/k NA= 6.623 ×1023mol-1, D = 78.3 (H2O,25°C) -1 = 4.20×10-8/(CjZj2)1/2 = 4.20×10-8/(2Cj)1/2 1:1

  8. (b) Disadvantage • The point charge hypothesis n0- the concentration of positive and negative ions in bulk phase in diffusion layer : Counter ions: nc= n+=n0exp(Ze/kT) Homo ions: nh= n-=n0exp-(Ze/kT) If n0 and 0  nc » nh may be reasonless • Only static interaction between ions and interfacial of solid-liquid

  9. (3) Stern Model – Helmholtz & Gouy- Chapman • Outline as follow • The ions which includes hydrate water possess size ; • Not only static interaction , but also dispersion force between ions and interfacial of solid-liquid • Stern layer & Diffusion layer (b) Stern layer • IHP – Inner Helmholtz Plane • Counter ions – static interaction mostly • Homo ions – dispersion force mostly e.g. surfactants – characteristic adsorption • Partially hydrated ions -

  10. OHP – Outer Helmholtz Plane – hydrated counter ions (c) Diffusion Layer – same with G-C Model (d) Surface potential • Surface Thermodynamic Potential 0- from S/L interface to bulk phase: 0= 0(T,P) • Surface Stern Potential S- from Stern Layer to bulk phase: Diffusion potential = Sexp-x • Adsorbed counter ions |S| < |0| until showing reversal (相反)of surface potential • Adsorbed homo ions |S| > |0| • -Potential – from plane of shear at S/L to bulk phase – electrokinetic potential

  11. (e) S and -Potential • -Potential can be determined, but S cannot. • |S|  ||  the plane of shear is more far from the S/L interface than Stern Plane • Small electric potential gradient (电位梯度): |S|  || • If ion strength (I) or Stern potential (|S| ) is low, and • Thickness of diffusion EDL(-1) is long, ales |S| » || (4) Zeta potential (a) Mensuration • Electro-phoresis (电泳) • Electro-osmosis (电渗)

  12. (b) Factors effecting Zeta potential • Characteristic adsorption – ionics • Electrolyte – the electrical double layer is compressed, electric potential gradient is increased , and ||

  13. Relations of Zeta potential and Гof cationics on bentonite (膨润土) Relations of Zeta potential and Гof SMP on bentonite

  14. §3. Dispersion of solid • DLVO theory – stability theory of colloid independently by Derjaguin and Landau(Soviet Union) in 1945 and Verwey and Overbeek (Holland) in 1948 • The potential energy of attraction between particles VA • The potential energy of attraction between molecule Van Der Waals’s energy (force) : = --6 including induction (Debye) force , dipole (Keesom) force , and dispersion (Landon) force

  15. H r • The potential energy of attraction between particles VA= - (A r/12H) If H « r as a plane particle VA= - (A r/12H2) A – Apparent Hanaker constant A = [(A2)1/2 – (A1)1/2]2 A1,A2- Hamaker constant of particle and dispersion medium

  16. (2) The potential energy of repulsion between particles VR= (rDU2/2) ln [1+exp-H] D –dielectric consrant of dispersion medium U – potential between adsorbed layer and diffusion layer -1- thickness of diffusion DEL (3) The Total potential energy V= VA+ VR • r « -1 • The site of first minimum – agglutination • The site of second minimum – flocculation • VM – maximum VM/kT15-25 stable colloid

  18. (4) Limitations of the DLVO Theory The stability of lyophobic dispersion is limited to the effect of surface potential of the particles. • A decease in the contact angle of dispersing medium on solid may increase dispersibility; • Surfactants that are polymeric or that have long POE chains may form non-electrical steric barriers; • In liquids of low dielectric constant, surfactants may produce steric barriers to aggregation; • For highly solvated particles in particular the Zeta potential may be quite different from s.

  19. 2. Steric Forces – stability and flocculation of polymers & POE nonionicsh (1) An entropic effect – due to restriction of the motion of the chains extending into the liquid phase when adjacent particles approach each other closely. When H  -1， the effects becomes particularly important. (to see a) (2) A mixing ffect – due to solvent-chain interactions and the high concentration of chains in the region of overlap. if chain-chain>solvent-chain, overlap, G, dispersion if shain-chain<solvent-chain, overlap, G, flocculation (3) Both effects Number of adsorbed chain effect Length of adsorbed chain effect

  22. (2) De-aggregation (解聚集) of Fragmentation (劈裂) of particle clusters (团粒) – mechanisms • By being adsorbed in “microcracks” (微裂纹) in the solid – permeation (渗透) – to reduce self-healing ability particles P = 2LVcos/R • < 90° P > 0 then penetrable, else cannot cos  = (SV - LS)/LV Addition surfactants SV &LV cos  ,   (b) By being adsorbed an ionic surfactants onto the particles in clusters – acquire an electrical charge of similar sign – to reduce the energy required to rupture solid : homo-ionics > nonionics > counter ionics (instable and flocculation)

Flocculation • Mechanisms of flocculation • Neutralization or reduction of the potential at the Stern Layer of the dispersed particles – addition of electrolyte – electrical barrier – agglomeration • Bridging (架桥) – addition of flocculants – flocculation (a) A long surfactants containing functional groups at various points in the molecule.
