| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We examined clustering of oppositely charged binary colloidal particles. Optimum conditions were examined for the formations of tetrahedral clusters (particle size ratio, concentration ratio, charge number, etc). We also found that clustering of polystyrene (PS) and silica particles, both of which were negatively charged, could be controlled by additions of cationic surfactant cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC); Because of the absorption of the CPC molecules, the charge number of the PS and silica particles decreased with increasing CPC concentration (Csurf) and inverted to be positive after passing through the isoelectric point (Csurf = Ciep). The hydrophobic PS particles had much lower Ciep than that of hydrophilic silica particles. When Csurf was in the region between their Ciep’s, the PS and silica particles were charged oppositely, resulted in the clustering. Constructions of higher organizations of clusters are in progress.
