Aggregation Kinetics of Manganese Dioxide Colloids in Aqueous Solution: Influence of Humic Substances and Biomacromolecules
Abstract
In this work, the early stage aggregation kinetics of manganese dioxide (MnO2) colloids in aqueous solution and the effects of constituents of natural organic matter (i.e., Suwannee River fulvic acid (SRFA), Suwannee River humic acid (SRHA), alginate, and bovine serum albumin (BSA)) were investigated by time-resolved dynamic light scattering. MnO2 colloids were significantly aggregated in the presence of monovalent and divalent cations. The critical coagulation concentrations were 28, 0.8, and 0.45 mM for NaNO3, Mg(NO3)2, and Ca(NO3)2, respectively. The Hamaker constant of MnO2 colloids in aqueous solution was 7.84 × 10(-20) J. All the macromolecules tested slowed MnO2 colloidal aggregation rates greatly. The steric repulsive forces, originated from organic layers adsorbed on MnO2 colloidal surfaces, may be mainly responsible for their stabilizing effects. However, the complexes formed by alginate and Ca(2+) (>5 mM) might play a bridging role and thus enhanced MnO2 colloidal aggregation instead. These results may be important for assessing the fate and transport of MnO2 colloids and associated contaminants.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
