چکیده انگلیسی
When small particles are added to a colloidal dispersion of large particles, a depletion interaction between large particles occurs because the small ones are depleted from the gaps between the former particles. In the present paper, a cell model is employed to examine the behavior of a dispersion of large particles immersed in an electrolyte solution containing small particles. In this model, each cell consists of one large particle in its center and an associated atmosphere. Double-layer, van der Waals, and depletion interactions, as well as entropic effects, have been taken into account. When the change of the free energy with respect to that of the electrolyte solution is negative (and this happens in most cases), the dispersions of large particles are stable from a thermodynamic point of view. With increasing volume fraction of the small particles, the free energy change becomes more negative. The formation of gels observed experimentally in concentrated emulsions is explained through the formation of a thermodynamically stable dispersion.
