4 How does a DCP instrument work? Particles thrown out radially to the disc periphery and detected by change in light intensity Disc Dispersion at injection Time At injection time = 0 Spin fluid Fractionation time = t Larger particles detected first Fractionation of particles occurs within a disc centrifuge during measurement Detection time, t, is given by: t = [K..ln(R d /R i )]/[ 2 d w2 ] i.e. t 1.d w 2 K and ln(r d /R i ) are known constants is the solution viscosity is the centrifugation rate, typically ,000 rpm is the density difference between the particles and the spin fluid d w is the weight-average particle diameter
5 Pros and Cons of Disc Centrifuge Photosedimentometry Advantages 1. Wide dynamic range: Disadvantages 100 nm 10 nm 2. Short analysis times (10-45 minutes) 60 mm 3. Excellent resolution compared to DLS (because of fractionation during measurement) 4. Gives weight-average particle diameter (d w ) directly 5. Works well for hard spheres (non-solvated particles): gives good results for silica sols, PS latex, iron oxides, nanocomposites, ceramics (+ emulsions?) 6. Can easily assess the degree of dispersion / flocculation of dilute dispersions 1. Requires accurate particle density (need helium pycnometry) 2. Less good for solvated particles (e.g. sterically-stabilized latexes, microgels) because particle density is not known precisely 3. Assumes a spherical morphology (not true for clay platelets, nanorods etc.) 4. Reduced dynamic range if small Δρ between particles, solvent (e.g. PS latex in water) Overall: Quick, reliable, convenient preferred sizing technique for hard spheres in water

10 What is the effect of a density distribution superimposed on a DCP particle size distribution? Part 1 See L. A. Fielding, S. P. Armes, P. W. Fowler et al., Langmuir, 2012, 28, 2536 Core-shell nanocomposite particles of finite polydispersity exhibit artifactual narrowing of their DCP size distribution due to a superimposed density distribution: Low-density polymer core Patrick Fowler High-density silica shell Sasha Mykhaylyk Non-trivial problem: Took more than a year to solve. Involved small-angle x-ray scattering, analytical ultracentrifugation and the solution of a quintic (x 5 ) equation
11 What is the effect of a density distribution superimposed on a DCP particle size distribution? Part 2 B. Akpinar, L. A. Fielding, P. W. Fowler, O. O. Mykhaylyk, S. P. Armes et al., Macromolecules, 2016, 49, 5160 Model sterically-stabilised diblock copolymer nanoparticles of finite polydispersity with high-density cores, low-density (solvated) shells DCP Bernice Akpinar Dr Lee Fielding In this case get an artifactual broadening of the DCP size distribution
12 Synthesis of diblock copolymer vesicles for in situ encapsulation of silica nanoparticles C. J. Mable, S. P. Armes et al. JACS, 2015, 137, e.g. G 58 H 250 diblock copolymer vesicles in presence of 20 % w/w silica nanoparticles 400 nm 400 nm 100 nm Excess non-encapsulated silica nanoparticles removed after six centrifugation cycles
13 Disc centrifuge particle size analysis of silica-loaded diblock copolymer vesicles Assuming empty vesicle ρ = 1.10 g cm -3 Corrected ρ values calculated using constant SAXS vesicle diameter of 291 nm to normalise DCP data Vesicle density increases with [silica] o : can calculate silica loading!
14 DCP analysis: silica-loaded G 58 H 250 diblock copolymer vesicles C. J. Mable, S. P. Armes et al. JACS, 2015, 137, Number of silica nanoparticles per vesicle calculated from DCP analysis Silica loading efficiency is well below theoretical maximum Seems to be a diffusion-limited mass transport problem!
15 Transmission LUMiSizer Analytical Centrifugation g Near IR light source A PC-controlled analytical photocentrifuge Sample Obtain Space- and Time-resolved Extinction Profiles for up to 12 samples simultaneously (high throughput) Time Time colour coded Transmission profiles Near-IR light source illuminates entire sample cell: detect light transmitted through sample cell(s) Transmission converted into extinction: particle size can be calculated given particle density and refractive index Space Radial Position CCD detector Ideally suited for assessing the size and degree of dispersion of colloidal particles Particularly useful for carbon black nanoparticles dispersed in n-alkanes (highly coloured plus disposable cells!) Unlike DCP, the operating temperature range for the LUMiSizer is 4 o C to 60 o C Centrifugal sedimentation

19 Conclusions Disc centrifuge photosedimentometry is a powerful sizing technique Enables assessment of flocculation, as well as particle size analysis Solvated particles, density distributions require a lot of hard work! LUMiSizer, DCP are highly complementary sizing techniques LUMiSizer well-suited to multiple samples in non-aqueous solvents, good for highly coloured pigments, offers temperature control

21 Problem of Effective Particle Density (BP-funded PhD) D. J. Growney, O. O. Mykhaylyk et al., Langmuir, 2015, 31, 8764 WRONG PEP or PB PS RIGHT ρ = 1.89 g cm -3 ρ = 0.91 g cm -3 Diameter /nm D = 40 ± 5 nm ρ solvent = 0.75 g cm -3 (n-dodecane) Diameter / nm D = 118 ± 15 nm Thick steric stabiliser layer leads to lower particle density, incurs LUMiSizer sizing error
22 Is carbon black a good mimic for diesel soot? (BP-funded PhD) D. J. Growney, O. Mykhaylyk, S. P. Armes et al., Langmuir, 2015, 31, PS-PEP diblock copolymer Carbon black Olefinic copolymer Carbon black 106 ± 4 nm Good mimic Bad mimic 107 ± 2 nm Diesel soot 107 ± 5 nm Carbon black or diesel soot Diesel soot 4.9 ± 2.0 µm Answer depends on the nature of the chosen copolymer dispersant!
23 Effect of particle density on the lower limit particle diameter measurable by DCP: Colloid Type PS latex Silica sol Magnetite sol / g cm -3 / g cm -3 Lower limit d w / nm ~ ~ Dynamic range depends markedly on particle density due to (see equation) [Also: DCP is not well suited for particle mixtures with different densities] Can also use an X-ray source/detector (instead of a light source/detector) X-ray disc centrifuge is more expensive, but no assumptions required concerning scattering/absorption characteristics of particles. Not useful for most latexes, since these usually comprise only low Z atoms (C, H, N, O etc.) When analysing larger particles, can extend upper limit by either increasing or decreasing (otherwise particles move to disc periphery too quickly) Two analysis methods: 1. Line-start mode: Differential PSD determined directly so inherently high resolution; standard analysis method. 2. Homogeneous start mode: Needs larger sample volume; measures integrated PSD & calculates differential PSD; better suited for broad PSD s.
