Summary

A review is made of the existing theoretical expressions, describing the change of the scattered light intensity and the birefringence by application of an electrical field to a colloid solution.

Furthermore, the geometrical functions for disc-shaped particles are calculated in this article for the case of electric light scattering and are. presented graphically. In addition, expressions are derived for the average value of the electrical polarizability (γ) for the case of polydisperse solutions.

Zusammenfassung

Es wird ein überblick über die existierenden theoretischen Beziehungen gegeben, die die Änderung der Intensität des Streulichtes und der Doppelbrechung von Kolloidsuspensionen im elektrischen Feld beschreiben.

Weiterhin sind die geometrischen Funktionen für scheibchenförmige Teilchen in dieser Arbeit für den Fall der elektrooptischen Lichtstreuung berechnet und grafisch dargestellt. Außerdem werden Beziehungen für den Mittelwert der elektrischen Polarisierbarkeit (γ) für den Fall polydisperser Suspensionen abgeleitet.
