Turbidimetry measures forces between charged polymeric particles at low ionic strength. This method determines effective particle charge, validated against light scattering data.

Area of Science:

  • Colloid and Polymer Science
  • Physical Chemistry
  • Materials Science

Background:

  • Understanding interparticle forces is crucial for colloidal systems.
  • Low ionic strength conditions present unique challenges in characterizing these forces.
