Abstrakt: The adsorption, electrokinetic and stability properties of yttrium(III) oxide—Y2O3 in mixed solutions of macromolecular compounds were investigated. The interfacial behavior of poly(acrylic acid)-PAA and poly(ethylene glycol)—PEG in single and binary systems was examined in the pH range 3–10. The polymers used were characterized by different ionic nature—the PAA is an anionic polymer, whereas PEG belongs to the group of non-ionic polymers. Based on the results obtained, the most probable mechanisms for the binding of PAA and PEG macromolecules on the yttrium(III) oxide surface were proposed. In addition, the analysis of adsorption and electrokinetic data enabled explanation of the obtained changes in the stability of Y2O3 suspensions without and in the presence of PAA or/and PEG, as well as determination of the specific stabilization-destabilization mechanisms of the studied systems. It was shown that yttrium(III) oxide modification by mixed adsorption layers of both polymers with different ionic character changes considerably the surface and stability properties of the examined solid suspensions.
