  2. Colloid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colloid

    Colloid solutions used in intravenous therapy belong to a major group of volume expanders, and can be used for intravenous fluid replacement. Colloids preserve a high colloid osmotic pressure in the blood, [ 50 ] and therefore, they should theoretically preferentially increase the intravascular volume , whereas other types of volume expanders ...

  3. Bredig's arc method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bredig's_arc_method

    Bredig's arc method or electrical disintegration is a method of preparation of colloidal solution, of metals such as gold, silver or platinum. This method consists of both dispersion and condensation. An arc is struck between electrodes of the desired metal, under the surface of water containing some stabilizing agent such as traces of ...

  4. Interface (matter) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interface_(matter)

    The interface between matter and air, or matter and vacuum, is called a surface, and studied in surface science. In thermal equilibrium, the regions in contact are called phases, and the interface is called a phase boundary. An example for an interface out of equilibrium is the grain boundary in polycrystalline matter.

  5. Interface and colloid science - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interface_and_colloid_science

    Milk is an emulsified colloid of liquid butterfat globules of 0.1 to 10 micrometer dispersed within a water-based solution.. Interface and colloid science is an interdisciplinary intersection of branches of chemistry, physics, nanoscience and other fields dealing with colloids, heterogeneous systems consisting of a mechanical mixture of particles between 1 nm and 1000 nm dispersed in a ...

  6. Colloidal probe technique - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colloidal_probe_technique

    The colloidal probe technique is commonly used to measure interaction forces acting between colloidal particles and/or planar surfaces in air or in solution. This technique relies on the use of an atomic force microscope (AFM). However, instead of a cantilever with a sharp AFM tip, one uses the colloidal probe. The colloidal probe consists of a ...

  7. Zeta potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeta_potential

    In the colloidal chemistry literature, it is usually denoted using the Greek letter zeta (ζ), hence ζ-potential. The usual units are volts (V) or, more commonly, millivolts (mV). From a theoretical viewpoint, the zeta potential is the electric potential in the interfacial double layer (DL) at the location of the slipping plane relative to a ...

  9. Colloidal silica - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colloidal_silica

    Hydrogen ions from the surface of colloidal silica tend to dissociate in aqueous solution, yielding a high negative charge. Substitution of some of the Si atoms by Al is known increase the negative colloidal charge, especially when it is evaluated at pH below the neutral point. Because of the very small size, the surface area of colloidal ...
