Sedimentation of Magnetic Suspensions of Magnetite
نویسندگان
چکیده
The gravity sedimentation of three narrow-sized fractions of suspensions of magnetite particles exposed to magnetic fields ranging from 0 to 180 x 10 -4 T was studied experimentally. At volumetric solids concentrations in excess of 15%, the magnetized suspensions of magnetite with size fractions ranging from -75 to +38 μm settled more slowly than the non-magnetized suspensions. However, owing to relatively weak magnetic interaction, the sedimentation of the magnetized and non-magnetized -38 μm size fractions was similar.

Colloidal stability of magnetite/poly(lactic acid) core/shell nanoparticles.
In this work, we describe an experimental investigation on the colloidal stability of suspensions of three kinds of particles, including magnetite, poly(lactic acid) (PLA), and composite core/shell colloids formed by a magnetite core surrounded by a PLA shell. The experiments were performed with dilute suspensions, so that recording the optical absorbance with time gives a suitable indication o...
متن کاملPreparation and sedimentation behavior in magnetic fields of magnetite-covered clay particles.
This work is devoted to the preparation of magnetite-covered clay particles in aqueous medium. For this purpose, magnetite nanoparticles were synthesized by a coprecipitation method. These magnetic particles are adhered to sodium montmorillonite (NaMt) particles in aqueous suspensions of both materials, by appropriate control of the electrolyte concentrations. The best condition to produce such...
متن کاملSeparation of Fe3O4 Nanoparticles from Water by Sedimentation in a Gradient Magnetic Field
Sedimentation dynamics of magnetite (γ-Fe3O4) nanopowders (10 20 nm) in water in the presence of a gradient magnetic field was studied by optical and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) relaxometry methods. The magnetic field B ≤ 0.3 T, dB/dz ≤ 0.13 T/cm was produced by the system of permanent strip magnets. The initial sedimentation rate of the nanoparticles in water and under magnetic fields is ...
متن کاملStabilization of magnetorheological suspensions by polyacrylic acid polymers.
This work is devoted to the synthesis and stabilization of magnetorheological suspensions constituted by monodisperse micrometer-sized magnetite spheres in aqueous media. The electrical double-layer characteristics of the solid/liquid interface were studied in the absence and presence of adsorbed layers of high molecular weight polyacrylic acids (PAA; Carbopol). Since the Carbopol-covered parti...
متن کاملAggregation and sedimentation of magnetite nanoparticle clusters †
Magnetite nanoparticles are redox active constituents of subsurface and corrosive environments. In this study, we characterized the aggregation and sedimentation behavior of well characterized magnetite nanoparticle clusters using dynamic light scattering (DLS), UV-vis-NIR spectroscopy, and small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). Both unfunctionalized (NaOH-magnetite) and tetramethylammonium hydro...
