Abstract:The utility of colloidal nanomaterials
in energy storage devices,
high-definition displays, and industrial coatings depends on their
solution processability and stability. Traditional theories of solvation
and colloidal stability, namely, Derjaguin–Landau–Verwey–Overbeek
(DLVO) and Flory–Huggins theories, describe classical approaches
to solvation and colloidal stability of hard-shell colloids and macromolecules,
respectively. In contrast, the solution-state behavior of polymers,
proteins, and related macromol… Show more
