  2. Zeta potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeta_potential

    The zeta potential is an important and readily measurable indicator of the stability of colloidal dispersions. The magnitude of the zeta potential indicates the degree of electrostatic repulsion between adjacent, similarly charged particles in a dispersion. For molecules and particles that are small enough, a high zeta potential will confer ...

  3. Surface charge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_charge

    In physics, at equilibrium, an ... At the slipping plane the potential Ψ has decreased to what is known as the zeta potential. Although zeta potential is an ...

  4. Double layer (surface science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_layer_(surface_science)

    Electric potential at this plane is called electrokinetic potential or zeta potential (also denoted as ζ-potential). [25] [26] The electric potential on the external boundary of the Stern layer versus the bulk electrolyte is referred to as Stern potential. Electric potential difference between the fluid bulk and the surface is called the ...

  7. Sedimentation potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sedimentation_potential

    Smoluchowski's sedimentation potential is defined where ε 0 is the permitivity of free space, D the dimensionless dielectric constant, ξ the zeta potential, g the acceleration due to gravity, Φ the particle volume fraction, ρ the particle density, ρ o the medium density, λ the specific volume conductivity, and η the viscosity.

  8. Streaming current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streaming_current

    Streaming currents in well-defined geometries are a sensitive method to characterize the zeta potential of surfaces, which is important in the fields of colloid and interface science. [1] In geology, measurements of related spontaneous potential are used for evaluations of formations. Streaming potential has to be considered in design for flow ...

  9. Zeta potential titration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeta_potential_titration

    Zeta potential titration is a titration of heterogeneous systems, for example colloids and emulsions. Solids in such systems have very high surface area. This type of titration is used to study the zeta potential of these surfaces under different conditions. Details of zeta potential definition and measuring techniques can be found in the ...
