剪切作用下活化速率过程理论及其在剪切诱导胶体聚集中的应用

Theory of activated-rate processes under shear with application to shear-induced aggregation of colloids

Alessio Zaccone, Daniele Gentili, Hua Wu, Massimo Morbidelli

摘要:

使用一种新的近似方案内的对流扩散(两体Smoluchowski)方程的框架,我们揭示了剪切驱动的聚集机制在剪切胶体系统的结构形成的起源。该理论,验证了对数值和实验,解释了诱导时间,其次是爆炸性的(不可逆的)上升的粘度观察到的电荷稳定的胶体和蛋白质系统在稳定的剪切。这里推导出的具有剪切力的Arrhenius型方程,扩展了存在剪切力的Kramers理论,是第一个分析结果,清楚地表明了剪切驱动在软凝聚态中遇到的活化速率过程中的重要作用。

英文摘要:

Using a novel approximation scheme within the convective diffusion (two body Smoluchowski) equation framework, we unveil the shear-driven aggregation mechanism at the origin of structure-formation in sheared colloidal systems. The theory, verified against numerics and experiments, explains the induction time followed by explosive (irreversible) rise of viscosity observed in charge-stabilized colloidal and protein systems under steady shear. The Arrhenius-type equation with shear derived here, extending Kramers theory in the presence of shear, is the first analytical result clearly showing the important role of shear-drive in activated-rate processes as they are encountered in soft condensed matter.
