勃姆石凝胶中剪切诱导的记忆效应

Shear-induced memory effects in boehmite gels

Iana Sudreau, Sébastien Manneville, Marion Servel, Thibaut Divoux

AI总结:

本研究发现酸诱导勃姆石凝胶存在临界剪切速率,高于该速率剪切活化后形成类凝胶弱凝胶,低于则形成类玻璃强凝胶,且两类凝胶屈服应变特性不同,可用梅森数解释临界剪切速率的物理本质。

摘要:

胶体凝胶由布朗粒子聚集成团簇形成,这些团簇进而构成跨空间的渗流网络的一部分。实际上,决定胶体凝胶力学性能的微观结构强烈依赖于粒子浓度及其相互作用的性质。另一个关键控制参数是样品所经历的剪切历史,它通过粒子聚集、团簇破碎和结构重构来控制团簇群体的尺寸和密度。本文研究了剪切历史对酸诱导的勃姆石(一种氧化铝)凝胶的影响。研究表明,在初次凝胶化之后,这些凝胶表现出双重响应,具体取决于用于使其微观结构恢复活力的剪切速率$\boldsymbol{\rm \dotγ_{p}}$。我们确定了一个临界剪切速率$\boldsymbol{\rm \dotγ_{c}}$:当剪切速率高于该值时,勃姆石凝胶在流动停止后表现出类凝胶的粘弹性谱,与初次凝胶化后得到的谱相似。然而,在低于$\boldsymbol{\rm \dotγ_{c}}$的剪切速率下进行剪切活化后停止流动时,勃姆石凝胶表现出类玻璃的粘弹性谱,同时弹性能增强。此外,勃姆石凝胶的非线性流变学性质在$\boldsymbol{\rm \dotγ_{c}}$的两侧也存在差异:在$\boldsymbol{\rm \dotγ_{p}>\dotγ_{c}}$条件下活化得到的弱凝胶,其屈服应变恒定,与$\boldsymbol{\rm \dotγ_{p}}$无关;而在$\boldsymbol{\rm \dotγ_{p}<\dotγ_{c}}$条件下得到的强凝胶,其屈服应变随$\boldsymbol{\rm \dotγ_{p}}$显著增大。我们的结果可以结合以往关于剪切诱导各向异性的文献来解释,同时我们通过无量纲量梅森数(Mason number)来解释临界剪切速率,该数用于比较剪切流强度与粒子间键合力。

英文摘要:

Colloidal gels are formed by the aggregation of Brownian particles into clusters that are, in turn, part of a space-spanning percolated network. In practice, the microstructure of colloidal gels, which dictates their mechanical properties, strongly depends on the particle concentration and on the nature of their interactions. Yet another critical control parameter is the shear history experienced by the sample, which controls the size and density of the cluster population, via particle aggregation, cluster breakup, and restructuring. Here we investigate the impact of shear history on acid-induced gels of boehmite, an aluminum oxide. We show that following a primary gelation, these gels display a dual response depending on the shear rate $\dotγ_{\rm p}$ used to rejuvenate their microstructure. We identify a critical shear rate $\dotγ_{\rm c}$, above which boehmite gels display a gel-like viscoelastic spectrum upon flow cessation, similar to that obtained following the primary gelation. However, upon flow cessation after shear rejuvenation below $\dotγ_{\rm c}$, boehmite gels display a glassy-like viscoelastic spectrum together with enhanced elastic properties. Moreover, the nonlinear rheological properties of boehmite gels also differ on both sides of $\dotγ_{\rm c}$: weak gels obtained after rejuvenation at $\dotγ_{\rm p}>\dotγ_{\rm c}$ show a yield strain that is constant, independent of $\dotγ_{\rm p}$, whereas strong gels obtained with $\dotγ_{\rm p}<\dotγ_{\rm c}$ display a yield strain that significantly increases with $\dotγ_{\rm p}$. Our results can be interpreted in light of previous literature on shear-induced anisotropy, while we rationalize the critical shear rate in terms of a dimensionless quantity, the Mason number, comparing the strength of the shear flow to the interparticle bond force.
