Abstract:A B S T R A C T:The translatory and rotatory diffusion coefficients, electrophoretic mobility, permanent dipole moment, electrical polarizability and optical anisotropy factor for a crocidolite sol have all been measured in a single optical apparatus. Electrophoretic light-scattering and electrically-induced birefringence were the methods used, these being rapid and well-suited to particles in the micron and sub-micron size-range, where conventional electrophoresis is difficult. Electric birefringence offers a… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
