Abstract

Recently, derived and relatively simple expressions for the energy of electrostatic repulsion between flat plates and spheres at constant surface charge were compared with the more rigorous expressions of Jones and Levine and of Müller. They are quantitative of the electrostatic barrier to the collision of colloidal particles in electrolyte solutions within the limitation of small surface potentials, ψo < 25mv. They are also useful in the general approximation of colloidal stability of most practical systems, despite the limitations on the validity of the expression at higher surface potentials.
