Understanding the stability behavior of colloidal silica in different alkali environments
This paper investigates the effect of three different alkalis, namely ammonia (NH4OH), ethylenediamine (EDA), and tetrabutylammonium hydroxide (TBAOH) on the stability of colloidal silica, with pH controlled within the range of 8–11. As a result, NH4OH greatly promotes the stability of silica sol at first due to the strong solvation ability of NH4+ and then the stability begins to decrease because the electric double layer of silica is compressed. The addition of EDA into silica system leads to a reduction in the stability evidently followed by a slight increase, which can be explained by the cationic bridging effect of the ethylenediammonium cations. Meanwhile, the effect of TBAOH on silica dispersion is analogous to EDA, mainly caused by the hydrophobic and steric effects. The abovementioned relevant stability mechanisms are involved in non-DLVO theory.
期刊介绍:
The objective of the Journal of Nanoparticle Research is to disseminate knowledge of the physical, chemical and biological phenomena and processes in structures that have at least one lengthscale ranging from molecular to approximately 100 nm (or submicron in some situations), and exhibit improved and novel properties that are a direct result of their small size.
Nanoparticle research is a key component of nanoscience, nanoengineering and nanotechnology.
The focus of the Journal is on the specific concepts, properties, phenomena, and processes related to particles, tubes, layers, macromolecules, clusters and other finite structures of the nanoscale size range. Synthesis, assembly, transport, reactivity, and stability of such structures are considered. Development of in-situ and ex-situ instrumentation for characterization of nanoparticles and their interfaces should be based on new principles for probing properties and phenomena not well understood at the nanometer scale. Modeling and simulation may include atom-based quantum mechanics; molecular dynamics; single-particle, multi-body and continuum based models; fractals; other methods suitable for modeling particle synthesis, assembling and interaction processes. Realization and application of systems, structures and devices with novel functions obtained via precursor nanoparticles is emphasized. Approaches may include gas-, liquid-, solid-, and vacuum-based processes, size reduction, chemical- and bio-self assembly. Contributions include utilization of nanoparticle systems for enhancing a phenomenon or process and particle assembling into hierarchical structures, as well as formulation and the administration of drugs. Synergistic approaches originating from different disciplines and technologies, and interaction between the research providers and users in this field, are encouraged.
