Abstract
Semi-empirical equations are derived that describe the dependence of shear stress on shear rate during the flow of a one-component suspension. The suspension is considered as consisting of two fractions: single grains of the solid phase and their dimers, between which a reversible dimerization reaction occurs. In this case, the dimerization of single grains is considered as a reaction with an invariable rate constant, and the dissociation of dimers is considered as an inverse reaction with a rate constant that increases linearly with the shear rate. The equations are based on the Krieger−Doherty formula, generalized to the case of a multicomponent suspension.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
