The flocculation of kaolin with polyacrylamides
Flocculation occurs when high molecular mass organic molecules form bridges between particles, causing them to aggregate. This modifies the sedimentation properties of the mineral slurry. Thus classical measures of flocculation, among them the settled bed height and the supernatant turbidity, have t...
