The critical coagulation concentration (CCC) is defined as the minimum concentration of counterions to induce coagulation of colloidal particles. modified calculation method was proposed to calculate CCC. Comparing the modified calculation method of CCC with the traditional calculation method, the critical condition of modified calculation method is stricter than traditional calculation method. The critical condition of modified calculation method is the maximum value of interaction force that is zero, and the critical condition of traditional calculation method is the maximum value of interaction energy that is zero. The calculation result of CCC based on interaction force is greater than the calculation value based on interaction energy. The CCC value of modified calculation method can ensure particles to coagulate definitely. 1. Introduction most important property of a colloidal system is its stability defined by the tendency of the particles to aggregate. ggregation of colloidal particles is a result of colloidal forces and was described independently by Derjaguin and Landau and Verwey and Overbeek in their DLVO theory. The DLVO theory involves two major terms: the Van der Waals force/energy based on interparticle distance and the electrostatic double layer force/energy aroused by overlapping of electrical double layer [1 3]. The total interaction force/energy in the DLVO theory is the summation of the two forces/energies: V T =V +V R, (1) where V T here stands for total interaction energy, V stands forvanderwaalsenergywhichisusuallyattractive,andv R stands for the electrostatic double layer energy. s shown in Figure 1, an energy profile based on the DLVO theory clarifies interparticle interactions. For two semi-infinite parallel plate particles, the Van der Waalsenergyisshownas V = 12πh 2, (2) where is the Hamaker constant of the system and h is the distance of closest approach between the particles. nd the electrostatic double layer energy is shown as V R = 64N CkT exp ( h), (3) where N is vogadro s number, C is the bulk concentration of electrolyte, k and T are the Boltzmann constant and the absolute temperature, respectively, h is the shortest separation distance, γ is defined as γ = (exp(zeψ /2kT) 1)/(exp(Zeψ /2kT) + 1), and is the inverse Debye length [4], which is defined by =( 1N e 2 εkt 1/2 Z 2 i C i), (4)

The electrostatic double layer force/energy depended on the bulk concentration of electrolyte, and the critical coagulation concentration (CCC) is one of the most significant characteristics of a colloidal dispersion. It is defined as the minimum concentration of counterions to induce coagulation of colloidal particles, and it is often applied to assess the status of a colloidal dispersion [5 9]. In the traditional case, it is based on the interaction energy to calculate CCC. In this paper, a modified calculation method is proposed to calculate CCC based on interaction force, the critical condition of this calculation method is stricter, and the calculation results are more accurate. 2. Traditional Calculation Method of CCC by Interaction Energy The traditional calculation method of CCC is based on the interaction energy of two colloidal particles. For two semi-infinite parallel plate particles, the total interaction energy is shown as [1 12] V T =V R +V = 64N CkT γ 2 exp ( h) 12πh 2. (5) sshowninfigure2,theconditionofcriticalcoagulation concentration based on total interaction energy is V max =. Consider Equation (6) can be expressed as V T =, dv (6) T dh =. V T = 64N CkT γ 2 exp ( h) 12πh 2 =, dv T dh = 64N CkT exp ( h) + 6πh 3 =. (7) 3E 18 Figure 2: Conditions of critical coagulation concentration based on total interaction energy. to For the first equation of (7) multiplied by 2/h, (7) leads 64N CkT exp ( h) + 6πh 3 =, V T = 2 h dv T dh = 64N CkT Solving for h and,(8)gives exp ( h) + 6πh 3 =. (8) h = 2. (9) For symmetrical type electrolyte, is defined as =( 2Z2 e 2 1/2 N C ).

(11) Substituting (9) into (11) and solving the equation, the CCC can be obtained C CCC = ε3 k 5 T 5 γ 4 1N e 6 2 Z 6. (12) s we have known k = J/K, e = C, N = mol 1,andε=ε ε r = = F/m. Substituting these parameters into (12) leads to C CCC = T 5 γ 4 2 Z 6. (13)

Modified Calculation Method of CCC by Interaction Force The relationship of interaction energy and interaction force of two colloidal particles is or D V= F (h) d (h) (14) + F= dv dh. (15) The relationship of interaction energy curve and interaction force curve is shown in Figure 3. In the process of two colloidal particles approaching, when the interaction energy reaches the maximum value, the interaction force is zero, and the interaction force is greater than zero when the interaction energy is increased; on the contrary, the interaction force is less than zero when the interaction energy is decreased [13 15]. For two semi-infinite parallel plate particles, the total interaction force is shown as F T =F R +F = 64N CkT exp ( h) 6πh 3. (16) From Figure 4, we can see that the condition of critical coagulation concentration based on total interaction force is F max =: F T =, df (17) T dh =. to F T = 64N CkT exp ( h) 6πh 3 =, df T dh = 64N CkT exp ( h) + 2πh 4 =. (18) For the first equation of (18) multiplied by 3/h,(18)leads F T = 3 h 64N CkT exp ( h) + 2πh 4 = df T dh = 64N CkT exp ( h) + 2πh 4 =. Solving for h and,(19)gives Substituting (1) into (16) leads to F T = 64N CkT exp ( h) (19) h = 3. (2) ( 2Z2 e 2 3/2 N C ) εkt 6π (h) 3 =. Substituting (2) into (21) leads to C 64N kt exp ( 3) =C 3/2 ( 2Z2 e 2 3/2 N ) εkt 6π (3) 3. Solving for C from(22),theccccanbeobtained (21) (22) C CCC = ε3 k 5 T 5 γ 4 1N e 6 2 Z 6. (23) Substituting those parameters into (23) leads to C CCC = T 5 γ 4 2 Z 6. (24)

Comparison of Two Calculation Methods Comparing the modified calculation method of CCC with the traditional calculation method, the critical condition of modified calculation method is stricter than traditional calculation method. When maximum value of interaction energy is zero, the relationship of interaction energy curve and interaction force curve is shown in Figure 5. We can see that the interaction force is zero when the maximum value of interaction energy is zero. We also now know that the interactionenergyislessthanzerointheregionoftob, but the interaction force is greater than zero in this region. So there is a repulsive force when two colloidal particles distance is in this region, and the colloidal particles cannot coagulate. In conclusion, the traditional calculation method of CCC is not accurate based on maximum value of interaction energy that is zero. nd the strict calculation condition of CCC is that maximum value of interaction force is zero. In addition, due to Brownian motion or stirring effect in the real colloidal solution, colloidal particles are moving, so coagulation can occur even if the energy barrier or force is not strictly less than zero. The calculation results of CCC with two calculation methods are shown in Table 1. The coefficients of two results are different, the coefficient of calculation result of CCC based on interaction force is , and the other one is Therefore, the calculation result of CCC based on interaction force is greater than the calculation value based on interaction energy. The CCC value of modified calculation methodcanensureparticlestocoagulatedefinitely. Montmorillonite is main inorganic mineral in coal and oil shale.

The experimental result of CCC of Ca 2+ for montmorillonite is.45 mmol/l, and the calculation results of CCC of Ca 2+ for montmorillonite based on interaction energy and force are.34 and.48 mmol/l, respectively. The experimental result of CCC is close to the calculation result based on interaction force, so the CCC value of modified calculation method is more accurate than traditional calculation method. 5. Conclusions modified calculation method was proposed to calculate CCC based on interaction force, the critical condition of modified calculation method is the maximum value of interaction force that is zero, and the critical condition of traditional calculation method is the maximum value of interaction energy that is zero. There is a repulsive force between two colloidal particles when interaction energy is less than zero in the specific region, and the colloidal particles cannot coagulate. Comparing the modified calculation method of CCC with the traditional calculation method, the critical condition of modified calculation method is stricter than traditional calculation method. The calculation result of CCC based on interaction force is greater than the calculation value based on interaction energy. The CCC value of modified calculation method can ensure particles to coagulate definitely.
