AbstractIn this research, sodium dodecyl sulfates (SDS) and N-cetyl-n,n,n-trimethyammonium bromide (CTAB) surfactant solutions are used as solvents of polystyrene (PS) colloidal suspension during the fabrication of colloidal crystals. The effects of the surfactant on the quality and the morphology of the colloidal crystals are studied. It was found that surfactants not only change the charge of PS colloidal particles, but also significantly changed the surface tension and the 3 phase contact angle of the suspension with respect to the glass substrate, in turn they change the thickness of the formed crystal as well as the crystal structure. The derived knowledge will be potentially useful in clarifying the mechanisms involved in the formation of colloidal crystals.

Surface tension is one of the fundamental properties of the colloids, which can be altered by concentration and size of colloidal particles. In the current work, modeling of the surface tension of suspension as it would be analyzed by maximum bubble pressure method has been performed. A new modified equation to correlate the surface tension with the bubble pressure is derived by applying fundamental thermodynamic relation considering the presence of particles in suspension and curvature of the interface between the particles and bubbles inside liquid. Moreover, the change of particles concentration in air–water interface due to capillary force is also considered. The predicted surface tension using the developed model has been verified by numerous experimental data with deviation less than 5% in most of cases. It was found that the calculated surface tension is altered by contact angle and particle radius as well as particle concentration. The obtained model may have potential application to predict the surface tension of colloidal suspension.

Rotating Field

Field induced structures are studied inside suspensions of magnetic colloidal particles of micronic size. We have characterized the average distance between aggregates in a thin cell with the magnetic field perpendicular to the plane and also in the presence of a rotating field with the plane of rotation perpendicular to the plane of the cell. The characteristic size of the mesostructure is predicted on the basis of a thermodynamic model. The theory well predicts the experimental results in the uniaxial case but not in the case of ae rotating field; in this last case, the surface tension which is needed to have a good fit is far too low compared to its expected order of magnitude. When the field is uniaxial and sinusoidal we have found a collective instability where all the aggregates are rotating simultaneously in a chaotic way.
