Clogging of microchannels by nano-particles due to hetero-coagulation in elongational flow

Small fraction of micrometer-sized particles (100–1000 ppm) induces hetero-coagulation in concentrated colloidal dispersions, when such dispersions are exposed to converging flow fields, e.g. during classical processing operations (e.g. filtration or pumping) or in microfluidic devices.

description Small fraction of micrometer-sized particles (100–1000 ppm) induces hetero-coagulation in concentrated colloidal dispersions, when such dispersions are exposed to converging flow fields, e.g. during classical processing operations (e.g. filtration or pumping) or in microfluidic devices. [Display omitted] ► Clogging of microchannels during processing of concentrated dispersions. ► Hetero-coagulation of primary particles and small fractions of micron-sized impurities in the converging flow field at the channel entrance. ► Aggregation can be avoided by ► Reducing the amount of micron-sized particles. ► Improving colloidal stability of primary particles. ► Applying high flow rates and steep entrance angles. We have investigated the phenomenon of flow-induced aggregation in highly concentrated colloidal dispersions exposed to strongly converging flow fields. This phenomenon is relevant not only for classical technical operations like coating, pumping or filtration, but also for the application of concentrated suspensions in upcoming processing technologies based on microfluidic devices. A ring-slit device (gap height 10–25 μm), which allows for a variation of flow kinematics in a wide range, has been developed in order to investigate this phenomenon. Various polymer dispersions with different particle surface properties have been used as model systems. Our experiments exclude, that channel clogging is due to retention of pre-existing aggregates, fouling or hydrodynamic bridging. Instead, we demonstrate that clogging of the microchannel is induced by hetero-coagulation between primary colloidal particles and micron-sized impurities present at concentrations on the order of 100–1000 ppm. Clogging can occur even if the diameter of these impurities is less than a tenth of the gap height. Aggregation takes place in the converging flow field at the channel entrance, but not in the shear field within the slit. It can be suppressed by appropriate stabilization of the primary particles.
