Role of the secondary minimum on the flocculation rate of nondeformable droplets

The kinetic stability of suspensions is usually associated with a decrease in the flux of flocculating particles due to the action of a repulsive potential. However, previous calculations on bitumen drops suggest the possible occurrence of relatively fast aggregation rates in systems with large elec...

520 |a The kinetic stability of suspensions is usually associated with a decrease in the flux of flocculating particles due to the action of a repulsive potential. However, previous calculations on bitumen drops suggest the possible occurrence of relatively fast aggregation rates in systems with large electrostatic barriers for primary minimum flocculation. This indicates a strong effect of the secondary minimum in the process of aggregation. Here, emulsion stability simulations (ESS) are used to study the aggregation behavior of 11 systems showing different depths of the secondary minimum and three particle sizes. Micron size drops (as those of Bitumen emulsions) usually exhibit deep secondary minima, which rarely occur between nanometer size particles. At high surfactant concentrations, these drops do not coalesce but can still show fast aggregation rates caused by irreversible secondary-minimum flocculation. On the other hand, the extent of coalescence in nanometer-size systems markedly depends on the height of the repulsive barrier. Furthermore, the secondary minimum of these smaller particles is usually shallow, causing reversible aggregation or no aggregation at all. In this article, the consequences of the referred behaviors on the magnitude of the stability ratio are discussed
