动态光散射分析不同物化条件下酪蛋白的聚集行为及其胶束尺寸

采用动态光散射技术考察了酪蛋白胶束在各种物化条件(温度、浓度、pH、离子强度、乙醇)下的聚集行为,并测定了胶束尺寸。结果表明:热处理导致酪蛋白胶束发生离解,平均流体力学半径(Rh)值不断减小,且当蛋白浓度较低时热离解过程为可逆,而浓度较高时则为不可逆;酪蛋白胶束的Rh值随蛋白浓度及离子强度的增加均呈现先减小后逐渐增大的趋势,并分别在2g/L和0.1mol/L时达到最小值;而Rh值随pH值的增加则先增大再逐渐减小,并在pH7.0时达到最大值;添加乙醇使酪蛋白胶束不断聚集,Rh值逐渐增加,溶液散射光强(Iθ)呈指数增长。

Dynamic Light Scattering Based Microelectrophoresis: Main Prospects and Limitations

Microelectrophoresis based on the dynamic light scattering (DLS) effect has been a major tool for assessing and controlling the conditions for stability of colloidal systems. However, both the DLS methods for characterization of the hydrodynamic size of dispersed submicron particles and the theory behind the electrokinetic phenomena are associated with fundamental and practical approximations that limit their sensitivity and information output. Some of these fundamental limitations, including the spherical approximation of DLS measurements and an inability of microelectrophoretic analyses of colloidal systems to detect discrete charges and differ between differently charged particle surfaces due to rotational diffusion and particle orientation averaging, are revisited in this work. Along with that, the main prospects of these two analytical methods are mentioned. A detailed review of the role of zeta potential in processes of biochemical nature is given too. It is argued that although zeta potential has been used as one of the main parameters in controlling the stability of colloidal dispersions, its application potentials are much broader. Manipulating surface charges of interacting species in designing complex soft matter morphologies using the concept of zeta potential, intensively investigated recently, is given as one of the examples. Branching out from the field of colloid chemistry, DLS and zeta potential analyses are now increasingly finding application in drug delivery, biotechnologies, physical chemistry of nanoscale phenomena and other research fields that stand on the frontier of the contemporary science. Coupling the DLS-based microelectrophoretic systems with complementary characterization methods is mentioned as one of the prosperous paths for increasing the information output of these two analytical techniques.     

Investigation of Gelling Aqueous Clay Dispersions with Dynamic Light Scattering

Summary: The gelation process of aqueous clay (Laponite XLS, XLG) dispersions and of a photopolymerization system (N-isopropylacrylamide, Irgacure 2959, Laponite XLS) have been investigated by dynamic light scattering. The gelation threshold could be clearly indicated by a change in the shape of the time-intensity correlation function.     

Dynamic Behavior and Mass Transport in Polyacrylic Acid Gel by Dynamic Light Scattering

Dynamic behaviors on polyacrylic acid (PAA) gels and mass (small molecules) transports in the gels have been studied mainly by dynamic light scattering (DLS). The cross-linking degree (fc), monomer concentration (Cm) and temperature of the gels have significant influences on its dynamic behavior and mass transport in the gels. The increase of fc leads to decrease of the mesh sizes of the gels, thus the obstacle of the gels for mass thansport is increased. As a result, small molecular diffusion Dk in the gles is decreased.So even if for small molccules, the Dk also is influenced.

On Aging of Acid-Catalyzed Silica Sols—A Dynamic Light Scattering Study

Dynamic light scattering experiments in acid-catalyzed silica sols are discussed. It is shown that in spite of limited parameter accuracy and limited absolute knowledge of the particle sizes, the scattering data from various experiments are comparable with one another and give information about structural differences. Measurements at various angles indicate changes between non-spherical and nearly spherical particles and allow the estimation of gelling times before gelation.     

Characterization of Carbon Based Nanoparticles Dispersion in Aqueous Solution Using Dynamic Light Scattering Technique

Characterization of physicochemical properties of nanoparticles in aqueous environment prior to conducting hazard studies is strongly recommended by many scientific organizations. In this work we studied the dissolution behaviour and physicochemical properties of carbon based nanoparticles in aqueous solution. The time evolution of the size distribution and the state of dispersion of carbon black and carbon nanotubes in physiological solution have been investigated by means of Dynamic Light Scattering technique. The influence of mechanical agitation such as sonication and stirring on the agglomeration state and particle size distribution has been investigated. However, such processes seem to have little or no effect as far as agglomeration is concerned.     

Comparison of Critical Exponents Determined by Rheology and Dynamic Light Scattering on Irreversible and Reversible Gelling Systems

Summary: The sol-gel transition of a radical chain cross-linking copoly-merization system [N-vinylcaprolactam/2-hydroxylethyl methacrylate/allyl-methacrylate] and various thermoreversible gelling systems (mixtures made of xanthan gum and locust bean gum as well as gelatin) have been studied using in-situ time-resolved dynamic light scattering (DLS) and in-situ rheology. A critical dynamical behavior was observed near the sol-gel transition, which is characterized by the presence of a power-law spectra in the time-intensity correlation function g₂(t)−1 ∝ t^−µ and in the low-amplitude oscillatory shear experiment G′(ω) ∝ G″(ω) ∝ ωⁿ. A comparison of the obtained critical dynamical exponents µ and n were made according to the theory by Doi and Onuki. This theory predicts a relation between these exponents, but up to now no detailed experimental comparison was done in the past. It was found that for all investigated systems n > µ.     

Gelation Studies on a Radical Chain Cross‐Linking Copolymerization Process: Comparison of the Critical Exponents Obtained by Dynamic Light Scattering and Rheology

Summary: The sol–gel transition of a radical chain cross‐linking copolymerization system [N‐vinylcaprolactam/2‐hydroxylethyl methacrylate/allyl methacrylate] has been studied using in situ time‐resolved dynamic light scattering (DLS) and in situ rheology. A critical dynamic behavior was observed near the sol–gel transition, which was characterized by the presence of a power‐law spectra over three decades in the time–intensity correlation function g₂(t) − 1 ∼ t^−μ and over two decades in the oscillatory shear experiment G′(ω) ∼ G″(ω) ∼ ωⁿ. A comparison of the obtained critical exponents μ ≈ 0.62 and n ≈ 0.75 was made. The theory predicts a relationship between these exponents, but up to now no experimental comparison has been done. The experimental results favor the percolation model, with a fractal dimension d_f of the gel clusters of 1.67.

Use of a Dynamic Light Scattering Technique for SDS/Water/Pentanol Studies

The interpretation of micelle/aggregate size obtained by use of the DLS technique for SDS/water/pentanol systems was discussed by comparison of the results of measurement with theoretical data. For most of the studied systems, the apparent radii (R _h,app ) did not satisfactorily characterize the size of the aggregates (R _h,app  < 1 nm). The use of a correction factor (f = 0.26) confirmed that the discrepancies were associated with the electrostatic intermicellar interactions. However, the fuzzy optical interface between dispersed and dispersing phases can also be the reason of such results. An increase of pentanol content caused a decrease of the droplet radius in w/o systems but in o/w systems the changes were negligible.

水＋3-甲基吡啶＋溴化钠三元溶液动-静态光散射临界行为研究

对水＋3-甲基吡啶＋溴化钠三元电解质溶液的临界跨接行为的认识存在着争议. 部分研究认为由于三甲基吡啶的聚集, 体系存在从非经典的3D-Ising(三维伊辛)行为向经典的平均场行为的非单调跨接; 另一部分研究发现该体系符合3D-Ising临界行为, 并不存在跨接. 采用动-静态光散射研究了溴化钠, 3-甲基吡啶和水三元溶液的临界性质, 得到动态关联长度和静态关联长度, 发现动态关联长度和静态关联长度一致, 且在实验温度范围内(离临界温度0.01～25 K), 体系不违背3D-Ising行为, 也观测不到显著的临界跨接现象.
