Electro-osmotic flow of semidilute polyelectrolyte solutions.
We investigate electro-osmosis in aqueous solutions of polyelectrolytes using mean-field equations. A solution of positively charged polyelectrolytes is confined between two negatively charged planar surfaces, and an electric field is applied parallel to the surfaces. When electrostatic attraction between the polymer and the surface is strong, the polymers adhere to the surface, forming a highl...
متن کاملMobility of Nanoparticles in Semidilute Polyelectrolyte Solutions
We measure the mobility of nanoparticles at low concentrations in non-Newtonian semidilute aqueous solutions of high-molecular-weight polyelectrolyte polymers. Using optical microscopy and particle tracking algorithms, we image and track hydrophilic polystyrene nanoparticles of diameter 400 nm moving in aqueous solutions of partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide of molecular weight 8 000 000 Da an...
متن کاملElectro-osmotic pumping of sodium chloride solutions
Electro-osmotic pumping (EOP) theory and its characteristics (transport numbers, brine concentration, current density, current efficiency, electro-osmotic coefficients, etc.) of Selemion AMV and CMV ion-exchange membranes were studied. The brine concentration increased with increase in current density and feed water concentration. Current efficiency was nearly constant in a wide range of curren...
متن کاملIonic Origin of Electro-osmotic Flow Hysteresis.
Electro-osmotic flow, the driving of fluid at nano- or micro-scales with electric field, has found numerous applications, ranging from pumping to chemical and biomedical analyses in micro-devices. Electro-osmotic flow exhibits a puzzling hysteretic behavior when two fluids with different concentrations displace one another. The flow rate is faster when a higher concentration solution displaces ...
متن کاملElectro-osmotic flow of a model electrolyte.
Electro-osmotic flow is studied by nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations in a model system chosen to elucidate various factors affecting the velocity profile and facilitate comparison with existing continuum theories. The model system consists of spherical ions and solvent, with stationary, uniformly charged walls that make a channel with a height of 20 particle diameters. We find that ...
