Depletion Interaction

Colloidal dispersion is composed of particles with size ranging from 1 nm to [Formula: see text]m dispersed in solvents. There are the volume exclusion interaction and other interactions between colloidal particles, of which the former interaction causes the depletion effect. When a big sphere is immersed in the colloidal system of small spheres, there is a depletion layer around the big sphere where the center of small sphere cannot enter. The depletion layers of two big spheres overlap if they are close to each other, increasing the free volume accessed by small spheres and thereby enlarging the entropy of the system. As a result, an effective interaction between the two big spheres is resulted from the change of entropy as a function of their distance, which is referred to as the depletion interaction. This paper first introduces the concept and scenario of the depletion interaction in colloidal systems. Then we briefly introduce various numerical or simulations methods of the depletion interaction of hard sphere systems, such as the acceptance ratio method, Wang–Landau method, and the density functional theory method. Taking the Asakura–Oosawa model as an example, we introduce a useful approximation method, Derjaguin approximation as well as the derivation of some approximate formula for the depletion interaction of different hardcore colloidal systems, such as between a pair of spheres in mono-disperse small spheres, between a hard sphere and a hard wall in a liquid of small spheres, and between a pair of hard spheres in a liquid of thin rods and thin disks.

The vital role played by the lymphatic capillaries in the transfer of tissue fluids and particulate materials from the connective tissue area can be demonstrated by the rapid removal of injected vital dyes into the tissue areas. In order to ascertain the mechanisms involved in the transfer of substances from the connective tissue area at the ultrastructural level, we have injected colloidal particles of varying sizes which range from 80 A up to 900-mμ. These colloidal particles (colloidal ferritin 80-100A, thorium dioxide 100-200 A, biological carbon 200-300 and latex spheres 900-mμ) are injected directly into the interstitial spaces of the connective tissue with glass micro-needles mounted in a modified Chambers micromanipulator. The progress of the particles from the interstitial space into the lymphatic capillary lumen is followed by observing tissues from animals (skin of the guinea pig ear) that were injected at various time intervals ranging from 5 minutes up to 6 months.

Thin Sectioning

An anodic oxide film is formed on aluminum in an acidic elecrolyte during anodizing. The structure of the oxide film was observed directly by carbon replica method(l) and ultra-thin sectioning method(2). The oxide film consists of barrier layer and porous layer constructed with fine hexagonal cellular structure. The diameter of micro pores and the thickness of barrier layer depend on the applying voltage and electrolyte. Because the dimension of the pore corresponds to that of colloidal particles, many metals deposit in the pores. When the oxide film is treated as anode in emulsion of polyelectrolyte, the emulsion particles migrate onto the film and deposit on it. We investigated the behavior of the emulsion particles during electrodeposition.Aluminum foils (99.3%) were anodized in either 0.25M oxalic acid solution at 30°C or 3M sulfuric acid solution at 20°C. After washing with distilled water, the oxide films used as anode were coated with emulsion particles by applying voltage of 200V and then they were cured at 190°C for 30 minutes.

Laboratory Results

Retention of cationic dispersed rosin size was studied via turbidity measurements on stock filtrate with different alum and dispersed rosin size dosages. Stock charge characteristics were analyzed using both an analysis of charge demand determined via a streaming current detector and an evaluation of zeta potential of the fibers by streaming potential measurement. The results indicated that an optimum amount of alum existed such that good sizing retention was maintained throughout a wide range of dispersed rosin size dosages. However, when an excessive amount of alum was used and fines and colloidal particles were transitioned from anionic to cationic, the cationic size retention was reduced. Laboratory results were confirmed with a paper machine trial. All data suggested that a stock charge study was necessary to identify optimal alum dosage for a cationic dispersed rosin sizing program.
