Deryagin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek theory

The destabilisation of colloidal systems can also be described with the DLVO (Deryagin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek) theory. This theory has been proposed for lyophobic colloidal systems but can also be applied qualitatively to lyophilic colloidal systems. If the potential energy is plotted as a function of the distance of two particles, a curve is obtained as shown in Fig. 18.8. [Pg.371]

When particles approach each other, a result of the attractive van der Waals forces and the repulsive electrostatic forces is the generation of a potential energy barrier which tends to keep particles apart (see Figure 3.2). The Deryagin-Landau and Verwey-Overbeek theory describes the formation of the barrier such that for two spherical particles... [Pg.128]

Non-grafted boehmite rods experience a much more complicated interaction potential as positive surface electrical charges now play an important role. In this case, the phase diagram has to be discussed in the frame of both the Onsager model of nematic ordering and the DLVO (named after B.V. Deryagin, L. Landau, E.J.W. Verwey, and J.T.G. Overbeek) theory of colloidal stability, which describes colloidal stabihty as a balance between repulsive electrostatic and attractive van der Waals interactions [67,68]. At low ionic strength, electrostatic repulsion dominates so that the phase stability is essentially described by the... [Pg.145]

Consideration of the electrostatic repulsion and van der Waals forces of attraction by the Russians Deryagin and Landau and the Dutch scientists Verwey and Overbeek produced a satisfactory quantitative approach to the stability of hydrophobic suspensions. Their theory is known as the DLVO theory of colloid stability, the briefest outline of which is given here. [Pg.231]

The first useful theory of colloidal interaction forces and colloid stability (against aggregation) was developed independently by Deryagin and Landau and by Verwey and Overbeek. Hence it is called the DLVO theory. It takes into account the combined effects of van der Waals attraction and electrostatic repulsion. [Pg.459]

Independently Deryagin and Landau [1941] and Verwey and Overbeek [1948] developed a theory, usually referred to as the DVLO theory, to explain the complex interactions when electrostatic double layer systems are in contact. On... [Pg.49]

Electrical Double Layer Repulsion. Double layer interaction theory has been extensively investigated independraitly by Deryagin and Landau, and Verwey and Overbeek, DVLO theory. There are many reviews on the application of DVLO theory to colloids [Shaw, 1989]. One expression for the repulsive energy between two small spheres is ... [Pg.183]
