Abstract:
      Homoaggregation and flocculation behavior of ultrafine kaolinite in different pH aqueoussolutionwere studied by adissipative quartz crystal microbalance (QCM-D). Due to increasing the surface potential of octahedral aluminum oxy-hydroxyl (Al?O?OH), the results illustrate that homoaggregation behavior of ultrafine kaolinite were inhibited with increasing the pH value. Meanwhile, the pH of aqueous solution plays an important role in controlling the adsorption kinetics of cationicpolyacrylamide polymer on ultrafine Kaolinite.In the case of pH 8.5, polymer adsorption most closely for kaolinite, whereas when solution pH =6.5 formed the most porous adsorption layer. The cationicpolyacrylamide has better flocculation effectin alkalescence condition. As the solution from weak acid to weak alkaline, cationic polyacrylamide flocculating settling velocity of kaolinite increased significantly. The result of setting experiment consisted with the result of QCM-D.
