The pH value of tungsten oxide dispersion can have a significant impact on its dispersibility. The following are the possible effects of different pH values on the dispersibility of tungsten oxide dispersions:
Aggregation and Settling
In a specific pH range, the surface of tungsten oxide is charged, which can prevent the mutual attraction between particles, thereby promoting the dispersion of particles. Normally, neutral or near-neutral pH conditions (pH 6-8) are beneficial to the dispersibility of tungsten oxide particles and reduce particle aggregation and sedimentation.
charge neutralization
As the pH of the solution changes, the charge state on the surface of the tungsten oxide particles also changes. When the pH of the solution is close to the isoelectric point of tungsten oxide, the charge on the surface of the particles is neutralized, resulting in weakened repulsion between particles, and easy aggregation and sedimentation.
The effect of dispersant
Dispersant properties may vary under different pH conditions. Some dispersants show better dispersion effect in a specific pH range, which can adjust the surface charge of particles and increase the stability of particles. Therefore, the interaction between the pH value of the dispersion and the selected dispersant needs to be fully considered.
It should be pointed out that the surface properties of tungsten oxide particles and the stability of the dispersion are affected by many factors, not just the pH value. Therefore, in practical applications, it is necessary to comprehensively consider multiple factors such as solvent properties, dispersant selection and concentration, ion concentration, etc., in order to achieve the best tungsten oxide dispersion performance. For specific research and application, a series of experiments and optimization can be carried out to find the most suitable pH condition to achieve good dispersibility of tungsten oxide dispersion.
