| Abstract |
| Though thixotropy is a case of partial coagulation, it is a specific
phenomenon and not observed in all kinds of colloidal sols.
Alumino-silicate hydrosols, because of their high sensitivity
towards addition of electrolytes and high molecular weight,
exhibit this property. The relative influence of particle
concentration and electrolytes on the rate of thisxotropic growth
can be rheologically characterized by the hysteresis loop in the
double consistency curves. |
