Colloidal Suspensions
Chapter 9 Colloidal suspensions 9.1 Introduction So far we have discussed the motion of one single Brownian particle in a surrounding fluid and eventually in an extaernal potential. There are many practical applications of colloidal suspensions where several interacting Brownian particles are dissolved in a fluid. Colloid science has a long history startying with the observations by Robert Brown in 1828. The colloidal state was identified by Thomas Graham in 1861. In the first decade of last century studies of colloids played a central role in the development of statistical physics. The experiments of Perrin 1910, combined with Einstein's theory of Brownian motion from 1905, not only provided a determination of Avogadro's number but also laid to rest remaining doubts about the molecular composition of matter. An important event in the development of a quantitative description of colloidal systems was the derivation of effective pair potentials of charged colloidal particles. Much subsequent work, largely in the domain of chemistry, dealt with the stability of charged colloids and their aggregation under the influence of van der Waals attractions when the Coulombic repulsion is screened strongly by the addition of electrolyte. Synthetic colloidal spheres were first made in the 1940's. In the last twenty years the availability of several such reasonably well characterised "model" colloidal systems has attracted physicists to the field once more. The study, both theoretical and experimental, of the structure and dynamics of colloidal suspensions is now a vigorous and growing subject which spans chemistry, chemical engineering and physics. A colloidal dispersion is a heterogeneous system in which particles of solid or droplets of liquid are dispersed in a liquid medium. -
Known As the Dispersed Phase), Distributed Throughout a Continuous Phase (Known As Dispersion Medium)
COLLOIDAL DISPERSIONS Dispersed systems consist of particulate matter (known as the dispersed phase), distributed throughout a continuous phase (known as dispersion medium). CLASSIFICATION OF DISPERSED SYSTEMS On the basis of mean particle diameter of the dispersed material, three types of dispersed systems are generally considered: a) Molecular dispersions b) Colloidal dispersions, and c) Coarse dispersions Molecular dispersions are the true solutions of a solute phase in a solvent. The solute is in the form of separate molecules homogeneously distributed throughout the solvent. Example: aqueous solution of salts, glucose Colloidal dispersions are micro-heterogeneous dispersed systems. The dispersed phases cannot be separated under gravity or centrifugal or other forces. The particles do not mix or settle down. Example: aqueous dispersion of natural polymer, colloidal silver sols, jelly Coarse dispersions are heterogeneous dispersed systems in which the dispersed phase particles are larger than 0.5µm. The concentration of dispersed phase may exceed 20%. Example: pharmaceutical emulsions and suspensions COMPARISON OF CHARACTERISTICS THREE DISPERSED SYSTEMS Molecular dispersions Colloidal dispersions Coarse dispersions 1.

Novel Analytical Approaches for Solid Dispersion Characterization
Novel analytical approaches for solid dispersion characterization Inauguraldissertation zur Erlangung der Würde eines Doktors der Philosophie Vorgelegt der Philosophisch-Naturwissenschaftlichen Fakultät der Universität Basel von Sandra Jankovic Basel, 2020 Originaldokument gespeichert auf dem Dokumentenserver der Universität Basel edoc.unibas.ch Genehmigt von der Philosophisch-Naturwissenschaftlichen Fakultät auf Antrag von Erstbetreuer: Profs.

Smiesko Externe Experte: Prof. Dr. Zamostny Basel, den 26.05.2020 Prof. Dr. Martin Spiess Dekan “Behind every problem, there is an opportunity.” Galileo Galilei Abstract Abstract The overall aim of the thesis was to introduce new analytical techniques to characterize solid dispersion formulations. Solid dispersion formulations are employed to enhance the dissolution behavior and apparent solubility of poorly soluble compounds. This formulation strategy uses typically an amorphous physical form of a poorly soluble drug and combines it with a carrier for stabilization. The amorphous form presents higher free energy compared to a crystalline drug form thereby yielding a higher dissolution rate and possibly more complete oral absorption as well as bioavailability. The selection of appropriate excipients is crucial to guarantee the formulation performance and stability during the shelf life of the final product. To investigate drug formulation characteristics and predict their performance, different analytical techniques are needed. Along with the classical characterization techniques, novel approaches such as fluorescence spectroscopy and diffusing wave spectroscopy are introduced in the present thesis. The chapters 1 and 2 of this thesis cover fundamental aspects of poorly soluble drugs: an overview is given on amorphous solid dispersion (ASD) manufacturing technologies and characteristics of polymers and surfactants used in ASD. -
Characterization of Mixed Dispersions by Means of Acoustic Spectroscopy
Dispersion Technology, Inc. Phone (914) 241-4791 3 Hillside Avenue Fax (914) 241-4842 Mount Kisco, NY 10549 USA Email [email protected] Characterization of Mixed Dispersions by means of Acoustic Spectroscopy Introduction. Many natural or man-made dispersed systems contain more than one dispersed phase. For instance, blood has different types of the cells, paint usually consists of latex with added pigment, and sun-screen preparations include both an emulsion as well as sun-absorbing dispersed particles. A list of such important mixed systems is very long. There is a strong need in many cases to know the particle size distribution of one or more ingredient in such mixed systems. Light-based techniques are not capable of providing information on such real-world samples because optical methods normally require the sample to be diluted prior to measurement, thereby distorting or destroying altogether the particle size information being sought. In contrast, acoustic attenuation spectroscopy [1-3] opens an opportunity to eliminate this dilution step and thus preserve the PSD information of the original sample. It is now well known that acoustic spectroscopy is able to characterize particles size at concentrations up to 45% by volume [3-5]. This unique feature make acoustic spectroscopy very attractive for characterizing the particle size distribution of real-world dispersions. Importantly, there is one feature of acoustic spectroscopy which thus far has not been described sufficiently in the literature: namely the ability to characterize dispersions with more than one particle size mode. Whereas there are several papers [6-9] which demonstrate that acoustic spectroscopy is able to characterize bimodal distributions in dispersions where both modes are chemically identical, it is less well known that acoustics is also suitable for characterizing mixed dispersions where each mode is chemically quite different. -

ABSTRACT Paper is one of the most important inventions in the history of civilization, and it is an essential commodity to all people in the world. The fact that we make ubiquitous use of a score of paper products makes it easy to underestimate its value and significance. This review is intended to put into perspective the dispersion science involved in papermaking and to describe how our understanding of key processes has evolve since its conception, approximately 2000 years ago, from art to science. Paper is formed from a slurry of fibers and much smaller particles that are often called “fines” and other chemical additives. Ahead of the paper forming process the slurry is subjected to a series of steps, including treatment with polyionic species and passage through unit operations that impose shear forces on the papermaking suspension. These steps alternately disperse the solids apart or re-gather them back together. The overall process is optimized to achieve a highly uniform product, while at the same time achieving high efficiency in retaining fines in the sheet and allowing water to drain relatively quickly from the wet paper as it is being formed. -

Dilute Species Transport in Non-Newtonian, Single-Fluid, Porous Medium Systems
DILUTE SPECIES TRANSPORT IN NON-NEWTONIAN, SINGLE-FLUID, POROUS MEDIUM SYSTEMS Minge Jiang A technical report submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Environmental Engineering in the Department of Environmental Sciences and Engineering in the Gillings School of Global Public Health. Chapel Hill 2019 Approved by: Cass T. Miller Orlando Coronell Jason D. Surratt i © 2019 Minge Jiang ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Minge Jiang (Under the direction of Cass T. Miller) Vast reserves of natural gas held in tight shale formations have become accessible over the last two decades as a result of horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing. Hydraulic fracturing creates patterns of fractures that increase the permeability of the shale. The production of natural gas from such formations has led to the U.S. becoming a net exporter of natural gas, lowered energy costs, and led to a reduction in coal-fired power generation, thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The hydraulic fracturing process is complex and poses environmental risks, which are not clearly understood. Many fundamental questions remain to be answered before these risks can be clearly understood and analyzed. The difficulties result from the injection and attempted recovery of non-Newtonian fluids, which often include many species considered pollutants if encountered in drinking water, under gravitationally and viscously unstable conditions. This work investigates how species disperse in non-Newtonian fluids, which is a topic that has received scant attention in the literature. Dispersion is a deviation from the mean rate of movement, and it is caused by a combination of factors including molecular diffusion, and pore-scale velocity distributions, which are in turn affected by viscosity variations. -
