Abstract
Structural ordering of monodispersed spherical silica particles (MSSP) occurs in ammonia stabilized concentrated suspensions obtained by tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) hydrolysis in alcohol-aqueous solutions in the ammonia concentration range from 0.0001 to 0.0008 mol/L. MSSP interaction follows the DLFO (Deryagin, Landau, Ferway, and Overbeck) mechanism when electrostatic repulsive forces between the particles predominate, and the structural ordering requires straightened conditions, which are provided by suspension concentrating through MSSP gravitational precipitation.
