Dispersion Rheology "Interlude" Addition of a particulate phase to a liquid increases its viscosity in proportion to the volume fraction o of the dispersed phase: dispersed-phase volume total volume However,the hydrodynamically-effective volume fraction,f is often not the same as the formulated volume fraction o
Dispersion Rheology "Interlude" Addition of a particulate phase to a liquid increases its viscosity in proportion to the volume fraction o of the dispersed phase: dispersed-phase volume total volume However,the hydrodynamically-effective volume fraction,efe is often not the same as the formulated volume fraction o
Effective Volume Fraction e Φef can be made greater thanΦby: Increasing the hydrodynamic radius of the dispersed particle through adsorption of polymeric stabilizer particle surface electrical charge Flocculating the dispersion,trapping liquid phase within the flocs (volume of floc volume of particles contained)
The viscosity of suspensions Einstein showed that single particles increased the viscosity of a liquid (n)as a simple function of their phase volume () 7=7,(1+2.5p) There is no effect of particle size,nor of particle position, because the theory neglects the effects of other particles. This equation works for <10%
