Electrical Double Layer Interactions with Surface Charge Heterogeneities
Electrical double layer interactions with surface charge heterogeneities by Christian Pick A dissertation submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland October 2015 © 2015 Christian Pick All rights reserved Abstract Particle deposition at solid-liquid interfaces is a critical process in a diverse number of technological systems. The surface forces governing particle deposition are typically treated within the framework of the well-known DLVO (Derjaguin-Landau- Verwey-Overbeek) theory. DLVO theory assumes of a uniform surface charge density but real surfaces often contain chemical heterogeneities that can introduce variations in surface charge density. While numerous studies have revealed a great deal on the role of charge heterogeneities in particle deposition, direct force measurement of heterogeneously charged surfaces has remained a largely unexplored area of research. Force measurements would allow for systematic investigation into the effects of charge heterogeneities on surface forces. A significant challenge with employing force measurements of heterogeneously charged surfaces is the size of the interaction area, referred to in literature as the electrostatic zone of influence. For microparticles, the size of the zone of influence is, at most, a few hundred nanometers across. Creating a surface with well-defined patterned heterogeneities within this area is out of reach of most conventional photolithographic techniques. Here, we present a means of simultaneously scaling up the electrostatic zone of influence and performing direct force measurements with micropatterned heterogeneously charged surfaces by employing the surface forces apparatus (SFA). A technique is developed here based on the vapor deposition of an aminosilane (3- aminopropyltriethoxysilane, APTES) through elastomeric membranes to create surfaces for force measurement experiments. -
Nonlinear Electrostatics. the Poisson-Boltzmann Equation
Nonlinear Electrostatics. The Poisson-Boltzmann Equation C. G. Gray* and P. J. Stiles# *Department of Physics, University of Guelph, Guelph, ON N1G2W1, Canada ([email protected]) #Department of Molecular Sciences, Macquarie University, NSW 2109, Australia ([email protected]) The description of a conducting medium in thermal equilibrium, such as an electrolyte solution or a plasma, involves nonlinear electrostatics, a subject rarely discussed in the standard electricity and magnetism textbooks. We consider in detail the case of the electrostatic double layer formed by an electrolyte solution near a uniformly charged wall, and we use mean-field or Poisson-Boltzmann (PB) theory to calculate the mean electrostatic potential and the mean ion concentrations, as functions of distance from the wall. PB theory is developed from the Gibbs variational principle for thermal equilibrium of minimizing the system free energy. We clarify the key issue of which free energy (Helmholtz, Gibbs, grand, …) should be used in the Gibbs principle; this turns out to depend not only on the specified conditions in the bulk electrolyte solution (e.g., fixed volume or fixed pressure), but also on the specified surface conditions, such as fixed surface charge or fixed surface potential. Despite its nonlinearity the PB equation for the mean electrostatic potential can be solved analytically for planar or wall geometry, and we present analytic solutions for both a full electrolyte, and for an ionic solution which contains only counterions, i.e. ions of sign opposite to that of the wall charge. This latter case has some novel features. We also use the free energy to discuss the inter-wall forces which arise when the two parallel charged walls are sufficiently close to permit their double layers to overlap. -

FORCES AND INTERACTIONS BETWEEN NANOPARTICLES FOR CONTROLLED STRUCTURES by PAUL R. MARK A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Materials Science and Engineering Written under the direction of Dr. Laura Fabris And approved by ____________________________________________ ____________________________________________ ____________________________________________ ____________________________________________ ____________________________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey January, 2013 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Forces and Interactions Between Nanoparticles for Controlled Structures PAUL R MARK Dissertation Director: Dr. Laura Fabris In recent years, structured nanomaterials have started to demonstrate their full potential in breakthrough technologies. However, in order to fulfill the expectations held for the field, it is necessary to carefully design these structures depending upon the targeted application. This tailoring process suggests that a feedback between theory and experiment could potentially allow us to obtain a structure as near optimum as possible. This thesis seeks to describe the theory and experiment needed to understand and control the interactions among nanoparticles to build a functional device for the efficient conversion of sunlight into energy. This thesis will discuss a simulation built from the existing theories explaining nanoparticle interactions -

Interactions between Silica Particles in the Presence of Multivalent Coions Biljana Uzelac, Valentina Valmacco,∗ and Gregor Trefalt† Department of Inorganic and Analytical Chemistry, University of Geneva, Sciences II, 30 Quai Ernest-Ansermet, 1205 Geneva, Switzerland (Dated: July 25, 2017) Forces between charged silica particles in solutions of multivalent coions are measured with col- loidal probe technique based on atomic force microscopy. The concentration of 1:z electrolytes is systematically varied to understand the behavior of electrostatic interactions and double-layer prop- erties in these systems. Although the coions are multivalent the Derjaguin, Landau, Verwey, and Overbeek (DLVO) theory perfectly describes the measured force profiles. The diffuse-layer potentials and regulation properties are extracted from the forces profiles by using the DLVO theory. The de- pendencies of the diffuse-layer potential and regulation parameter shift to lower concentration with increasing coion valence when plotted as a function of concentration of 1:z salt. Interestingly, these profiles collapse to a master curve if plotted as a function of monovalent counterion concentration. I. INTRODUCTION in the case of multivalent coion systems.

Heteroaggregation and Homoaggregation of Latex Particles in the Presence of Alkyl Sulfate Surfactants
colloids and interfaces Article Heteroaggregation and Homoaggregation of Latex Particles in the Presence of Alkyl Sulfate Surfactants Tianchi Cao 1,2, Michal Borkovec 1 and Gregor Trefalt 1,* 1 Department of Inorganic and Analytical Chemistry, University of Geneva, Sciences II, 30 Quai Ernest-Ansermet, 1205 Geneva, Switzerland; [email protected] (T.C.); [email protected] (M.B.) 2 Department of Chemical and Environmental Engineering, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06520, USA * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 19 October 2020; Accepted: 6 November 2020; Published: 13 November 2020 Abstract: Heteroaggregation and homoaggregation is investigated with time-resolved multi-angle dynamic light scattering. The aggregation rates are measured in aqueous suspensions of amidine latex (AL) and sulfate latex (SL) particles in the presence of sodium octyl sulfate (SOS) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). As revealed by electrophoresis, the surfactants adsorb to both types of particles. For the AL particles, the adsorption of surfactants induces a charge reversal and triggers fast aggregation close to the isoelectric point (IEP). The negatively charged SL particles remain negatively charged and stable in the whole concentration range investigated. The heteroaggregation rates for AL and SL particles are fast at low surfactant concentrations, where the particles are oppositely charged. At higher concentrations, the heteroaggregation slows down above the IEP of the AL particles, where the particles become like-charged. The SDS has higher affinity to the surface compared to the SOS, which induces a shift of the IEP and of the fast aggregation regime to lower surfactant concentrations. Keywords: colloidal stability; heteroaggregation; DLVO 1. Introduction Aggregation of particles in suspensions is important in many practical applications, such as ceramic processing, paint fabrication, or drug formulation [1–4]. -
Understanding Adhesion: a Means for Preventing Fouling
ELSEVIER Understanding Adhesion: A Means for Preventing Fouling R. Oliveira • Adhesion of particulate materials is an important step in the formation Engenharia Biol6gica, of fouling. Because the size of such materials is generally less than 1 tzm, Unicersidade do Minho, the phenomenon can be described in terms of colloid chemistry. Accord- Braga, Portugal ingly, the net force of interaction between foulants and the surface has been described in terms of DLVO theory (van der Waals attraction and electrostatic double-layer repulsion). However, those forces are sometimes not sufficient to describe the formation of fouling. Recent works have made it possible to calculate the effect of hydrophobic interactions and steric forces, which can also be taken into account. In aqueous media, the various types of interactions can be strongly affected by the pH, the ionic strength, the type of ions, and the presence of polymeric molecules. The objective of this work is to give a general overview of the basic physicochemical factors playing a role in fouling and to outline some practical aspects related to the theoretical reasoning to help prevent or at leasl[ mitigate fouling. © Elsevier Science Inc., 1997 Keywords: adhesion, DLVO theory, surface free energy, hydrophobic interactions, steric forces, ionic strength, ion bridging INTRODUCTION tant roles.

MMNC, also known as nanoparticles reinforced metal, is an emerging class of materials exhibiting unusual mechanical, physical, and chemical properties. However, a lack of fundamental knowledge and technology on how to achieve a uniform nanoparticle dispersion in MMNCs has hindered the rapid development of the MMNC field. In ii this dissertation, several methods were explored to achieve a uniform nanoparticle dispersion in MMNCs. In-situ oxidation method were applied to fabricate Al-Al2O3 nanocomposites with a uniform dispersion of Al2O3 nanoparticles. Pure Al nanoparticles were cold compressed in a steel mold and then melted in an alumina container. Al2O3 nanoparticles were in situ synthesized through the oxidation of the Al nanoparticle surfaces to form bulk Al nanocomposites during the process. -
