In our previous paper we found that the particles in the slurry can agglomerate by adding larger amount of polyelectrolyte dispersant compared to that needed to attain well dispersion. Thus, the dependency of initial particle concentration on the agglomeration and its mechanism in slurry prepared by adding excess polyelectrolytes was experimentally discussed. It was shown that agglomeration behavior strongly depends on the additive amount of polyelectrolytes, not on the polyelectrolyte concentration in the solution. It was also found that the dominant factor of agglomeration in slurry prepared by adding extra polyelectrolytes should be the compression of the electrical double layer by the increased counter ion concentration, not by the so called depletion effect or by pH change. Interestingly, the final sediment had a relatively high packing fraction and good flowability in the case of the agglomerated slurry with extra polyelectrolytes compared to that of the agglomerated slurry with an additional NaCl solution. |
