Viscosity of concentrated suspensions and properties of porous media
thesis
posted on 2018-07-13, 11:12 authored by Viacheslav G. ZhdanovIn this study new theoretical method of calculations of effective properties of porous and
dispersed materials is suggested. The new method takes into account cluster formation in
colloidal suspensions/emulsions. This method is applied to calculations of dependence of
effective properties of porous and dispersed materials on volume fraction of dispersed phase.
Theoretical predictions are compared with available experimental data. [Continues.]
