Separation of Colloidal Particles in a Packed Column using Depletion Forces
Depletion forces were used to separate an equinumber density binary dispersion of 1.5 and 0.82 µm polystyrene sulfate (PS) particles. Experiments consisted of injecting a pulse of a binary dispersion of PS particles into the inlet of a packed bed of 0.5 mm silica collector beads. Prior to injection...
