journal contribution
posted on 2009-03-26, 13:59 authored by Victor Starov, Nina Kovalchuk, Paul Langston, Nidal HilalThe experimental evidences and available theoretical explanations on formation of
stable clusters in colloidal suspensions are reviewed. The clusters form in the
parameters range intermediate between that corresponds to a stable suspension built
up by singlets and that causing the irreversible coagulation of the suspension. The
stable clusters can appear as a result of a competition between a short range attraction
and a long range repulsion between colloidal particles or due to reversible flocculation
in the shallow secondary potential well.
