Summary
The stability of a negatively charged silver iodide sol in the presence of hafnium chloride in methanolwater media varied with pH and methanol content. At a constant pH, the critical coagulation concentrations (c.c.c.) and the critical stabilization concentrations (c.s.c.) go through a maximum as the alcohol content is increased from 0% to 80% w/w. This is explained as being due to methanol dipole adsorption with subsequent increase in the point of zero charge on the one hand, and by a decrease in counterion adsorption and a change in the chemical potential of the constituent Ag+ and I− ions on the other hand. At constant methanol concentration, the c.c.c. and c.s.c. values increase with increasing pH, as does the counterion adsorption, showing the formation of lower charged species due to hydrolysis. The hydrolysis seems to be less extensive as the alcohol concentration is increased.
Zusammenfassung
Die Stabilität der negativ geladenen Silberjodid-Sole in Anwesenheit von HfCl4 wurde als Funktion von Methylalkoholzusatz und pH untersucht. Bei konstantem pH-Wert zeigten die kritische Koagulationskonzentration (c.c.c.) und die kritische Umladungskonzentration (c.s.c.) ein Maximum, wenn der Alkoholgehalt von 0% auf 80% erhöht wurde. Dieses Verhalten wurde durch die Dipoladsorption von Methylalkohol, die zu einer Erhöhung des Nullpunktes der Ladung führt, und durch die Erniedrigung der Gegenionenadsorption erklärt. Beim konstanten Alkoholzusatz werden die c.c.c., die c.s.c. und die Gegenionenadsorption mit steigendem pH höher. Dagegen scheint die Hydrolyse der Hafniumionen mit steigender Alkoholkonzentration schwächer zu sein.
