The Colloid Stability of Polyelectrolyte Stabilised Dispersions

  • Chapter
Science and Technology of Polymer Colloids

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSE,volume 2))

Abstract

In the introduction the nature, properties and uses of polyelectrolytes are described. A review of the pertinent literature on the use of polyelectrolytes as stabilisers of aqueous dispersions is then given. This is followed by a brief discussion of the reasons why charge stabilisation and steric stabilisation by non-ionic polymers are inadequate stabilisation methods for dispersions in harsh-environments, such as media of high ionic strength and/or at high temperature, in which polyelectrolytes can provide colloidal stability. The likely mechanism by which polyelectrolytes stabilise aqueous dispersions is then discussed. Finally, recent work on the preparation of polyelectrolyte stabilised dispersions by both adsorption of graft copolymers containing polyelectrolyte moieties onto pre-formed latices and by dispersion polymerisation in the presence of polyelectrolytes is described.
