Abstract
This study investigates Halloysite Nanotube (HNT) dispersibility in ethanol-water mixtures – 0% and 10% ethanol at 100, 300, and 500 ppm HNT concentrations. Overall, the study finds that changes in HNT concentration linearly affect the response variables and showed that the 10% ethanol solvent has a higher zeta potential, smaller particle size, higher viscosity, and settling velocity. The enlargement of HNT particles at 10% ethanol while keeping better stability than water solvent is unexpected and can open novel studies about the dispersion of HNT in this solvent system.
期刊介绍:
Defect and Diffusion Forum (formerly Part A of ''''Diffusion and Defect Data'''') is designed for publication of up-to-date scientific research and applied aspects in the area of formation and dissemination of defects in solid materials, including the phenomena of diffusion. In addition to the traditional topic of mass diffusion, the journal is open to papers from the area of heat transfer in solids, liquids and gases, materials and substances. All papers are peer-reviewed and edited. Members of Editorial Boards and Associate Editors are invited to submit papers for publication in “Defect and Diffusion Forum” . Authors retain the right to publish an extended and significantly updated version in another periodical.
