Abstract:in Wiley InterScience (www.interscience.wiley.com).A continuous and fast gelation unit, referred to as a single-stage mechanically agitated gelation column has been proposed to perform gelation of colloidal systems. A fluorinated polymer latex, MFA 1 , has been used. The column is initially filled with a coagulant solution at a concentration that fully destabilizes the colloid. Under agitation, the colloid is fed continuously to the discharging region of the agitator blades where it forms flocs of gel by mixin… 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.
