Linkage between ζ-potential and electron donicity of charged polar surfaces 1. Implications for the mechanism of flocculation of particle suspensions with plurivalent counterions

TLDR
In this article, the surface properties of montmorillonite (SWy-1), glass and calcite particles were investigated by means of parallel measurements of electrophoretic mobilities and contact angles, as a function of the concentration of La3+ or Ca2+ ions.

The Hofmeister series: salt and solvent effects on interfacial phenomena

TL;DR: The aim of this review is to provide an up-to-date framework to guide understanding, consolidating recent advances in the many fields on which the Hofmeister series impinges.
Journal ArticleDOI

The DLVO theory in microbial adhesion

TL;DR: The DLVO theory has been used as a qualitative model, but also in a quantitative way to calculate adhesion free energy changes involved in microbial adhesion as mentioned in this paper, which has been shown to be effective in predicting bacterial adhesion to various interfaces using the classical Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek (DLVO) theory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydrophobicity of biosurfaces — Origin, quantitative determination and interaction energies

TL;DR: It is shown that the “hydrophobic” attraction energy between two apolar moieties immersed in water is the sole consequence of the hydrogen-bonding energy of cohesion of the water molecules surrounding these moieties.
Journal ArticleDOI

A review of non-DLVO interactions in environmental colloidal systems

TL;DR: The DLVO model has been found unable to fully describe the behavior of abiotic and abiotic colloidal behavior inaqueous media as mentioned in this paper, and it is reasonable to believe that the structure of water may participate in a more significant fashion.

Stability of oil-in-water emulsions stabilised by silica particles

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the preparation and properties of oil-in-water emulsions stabilised by colloidal silica particles alone, and assess the charge on the particles and their extent of flocculation, assessed via turbidity measurements.

The London—van der Waals attraction between spherical particles

TL;DR: In this article, the London-v.d. interaction between two spherical particles is computed as a function of the diameters and the distance separating them, and a table is calculated which enables numerical application of the formulae derived.

Interfacial Lifshitz-van der Waals and polar interactions in macroscopic systems

TL;DR: The concept of van der surface thermodynamics of (Lewis) Waals was first proposed by as discussed by the authors to account for certain properties of acid-base (AB) Interactions nonideal gases and liquids.

Additive and nonadditive surface tension components and the interpretation of contact angles

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the relation between contact angles and the three controlling parameters ybw, yg, and 7s of a polar solid, S, cannot be established by means of one single equation.

Zur Theorie und Systematik der Molekularkräfte

TL;DR: The Molekularkrafte zerlegen sich in drei wesentlich verschiedene bestandteile, von denen zwei, als Keesomscher Richteffekt and Debyescher Induktions-effekt, mutatis mutandis bereits fruher untersucht wurden as discussed by the authors.
