Depending on the surface and colloid chemistry of the system, the nature and magnitude of various interaction forces between particles will change and influence colloid stabUity and the rate of aggregation. The influence of these surface forces is taken into account by the collision efficiency factor in the population balance. The collision efficiency factor for aggregates is computed as reciprocal of the modified Fuchs StabUity ratio W for two primary particles k and I [26-29]
