Adsorption of Nonspherical Particles at Solid/Liquid Interfaces

摘要

Localized adsorption of nonspherical particles at solid/liquid inter- faces was analyzed theoretically. Aproximate models for calculat- ing ineractions between particles and interfaces as well as be- tween particles were discussed. It was demonstrated that for con- vex particles the Derjaguin model can be used for small separa- tions, whereas for larger separations the equivalent sphere ap- proach proved more appropriate. These analytical energy expres- sions were used in numerical Monte-Carlo RSA (random sequential adsorption) simulations of particle adsorption.
