Interaction between like-charged colloidal spheres in electrolyte solutions.
How colloidal particles interact with each other is one of the key issues that determines our ability to interpret experimental results for phase transitions in colloidal dispersions and our ability to apply colloid science to various industrial processes. The long-accepted theories for answering this question have been challenged by results from recent experiments. Herein we show from Monte-Ca...
متن کاملPair interaction of charged colloidal spheres near a charged wall.
Although equally charged colloidal particles dispersed in clean water are expected to repel each other, an unexplained long-range attraction has consistently been reported for charged colloidal spheres confined by charged macroscopic surfaces. We present an alternative equilibrium measurement of the pair interaction energy for charged spheres near a single charged wall. Analyzing their radial d...
متن کاملInteraction between like-charged polyelectrolyte-colloid complexes in electrolyte solutions: a Monte Carlo simulation study in the Debye-Hückel approximation.
We study the effective interaction between differently charged polyelectrolyte-colloid complexes in electrolyte solutions via Monte Carlo simulations. These complexes are formed when short and flexible polyelectrolyte chains adsorb onto oppositely charged colloidal spheres, dispersed in an electrolyte solution. In our simulations the bending energy between adjacent monomers is small compared to...
متن کاملAttractions between Hard Colloidal Spheres in Semiflexible Polymer Solutions
We explore the depletion attractions that arise between hard colloidal spheres immersed in a nonadsorbing polymer solution of DNA. We spatially confine two 1.25 μm silica spheres in a scanning optical tweezer and quantitatively examine their interaction potential in double-stranded DNA solutions of different concentrations. The potentials obtained display variations in depth and range that are ...
متن کاملInteraction between random heterogeneously charged surfaces in an electrolyte solution.
We study, using Monte Carlo simulations, the interaction between infinite heterogeneously charged surfaces inside an electrolyte solution. The surfaces are overall neutral with quenched charged domains. An average over the quenched disorder is performed to obtain the net force. We find that the interaction between the surfaces is repulsive at short distances and is attractive for larger separat...
