Small-Angle Neutron Scattering on a Core-Shell Colloidal System: A Contrast Variation Study
(2005) In Langmuir 21(23). p.10835-10845- Abstract
- Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) measurements are reported on a sterically stabilized, coreshell
colloidal system using contrast variation. Aqueous dispersions of polystyrene particles bearing grafted
poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) have been studied over a large range of particle concentrations and two different
solvent conditions for the PEG polymer. SANS data are analyzed quantitatively by modeling the particles
as core-shell colloids. In a good solvent and under particle contrast conditions, an effective hard-sphere
interaction captures excluded-volume interactions up to high concentrations. Contrast variation, through
isotopic substitution of both the core and solvent, expedite a... (More) - Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) measurements are reported on a sterically stabilized, coreshell

dilute limit and as a function of the particle concentration. Upon diminishing the solvent quality, subtle
changes in the PEG layer translate into attractions among particles of moderate magnitude (Less)
