Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for determining the zeta potential of solids which are in contact with liquids by means of flow potential / flow current measurements.
- the zeta potential is a measurement variable that provides information about the structure of the electrochemical double layer at the solid / liquid phase boundary.
- the structure of the electrochemical double layer and thus also the sign and the level of the zeta potential greatly influence numerous processes in nature and technology as well as the processing and use behavior of materials. examples are
- the zeta potential at the solid / liquid phase boundary is in
- the liquid used for the measurement is pressed by a compressed gas through capillaries or capillary systems, which are formed by the solid bodies to be examined, and the potential difference which arises as a result of the liquid flow is measured by electrodes which are located on both sides of the capillary system .
- the zeta potential ⁇ results from the relationship
- R electrical resistance between the electrodes
- the prerequisite for the latter method is the conversion of the pressure difference; ⁇ p into an analog electrical signal.
- the linear pressure change with time is obtained by opening or closing the valve of a nitrogen or compressed air tank in a defined manner via a stepper motor.
- Both measuring principles require the use of a nitrogen or compressed air tank for the appropriate safety precautions Application must come.
- the transportation of zeta potential measuring devices to their place of use in process control is made more difficult.
- the space requirement is considerable.
- the first-mentioned measuring principle requires a considerable amount of time.
- the complex control of a stepper motor and the calculation of the quotient E p / ⁇ p from the slope of a straight line are required.
- the aim of the invention is to reduce the expenditure on equipment for determining the zeta potential and to significantly reduce the time required for the measurement process.
- the object is achieved in that a pressure difference across a measuring section is generated with the aid of a speed-controlled pump, the pressure difference and the flow potential or the flow flow are measured synchronously, the quotient
- the invention provides a device for carrying out the method in which a centrifugal pump and a 4-way valve are arranged between a measuring liquid reservoir and a measuring cell, a differential pressure sensor being located between the outlet and inlet of the measuring cell.
- FIG. 1 shows the schematic structure of the measuring device.
- a time-variable pressure difference is generated with the help of a speed-controllable centrifugal pump over a measuring section, in which the material to be measured and through which a liquid flows, synchronously with the pressure difference, the flow potential, e.g. measured as a voltage or as a current between the electrodes, and both measured values are simultaneously fed to a microprocessor for processing.
- the pressure difference is measured with a differential pressure sensor, the output signal of which is a voltage proportional to the pressure difference, which can be processed directly by the microprocessor.
- the device for carrying out the method is constructed as follows:
- a pressureless storage container 1 is accommodated, from which a speed-controllable centrifugal pump 2 sucks the measuring liquid 3 and pumps it through a replaceable measuring cell 5 via a built-in conductivity measuring cell 4 and the measuring liquid 3 flows back from the measuring cell 5 into the storage container 1, between one - And exit from the measuring cell 5, a differential pressure sensor 6 is arranged and between the conductivity measuring cell 4 and the exchangeable measuring cell 5 4-way valve 7 is arranged, through which the flow direction through the exchangeable measuring cell 5 can be changed.

Abstract
Procédé pour déterminer le potentiel électrocinétique zeta dans lequel la pression différentielle nécessaire pour la mesure, engendrée sur un intervalle de mesure, est obtenue à l'aide d'une pompe commandée en agissant sur la vitesse de rotation de celle-ci et où le potentiel d'écoulement ou le courant sont mesurés en synchronisme avec la pression différentielle et où le potentiel zeta est ensuite calculé de manière connue. Avec ce procédé, on diminue le déploiement d'appareillage ainsi que le temps nécessaire à la mesure du potentiel zeta électrocinétique.Method for determining the electrokinetic zeta potential in which the differential pressure necessary for the measurement, generated over a measurement interval, is obtained using a pump controlled by acting on the speed of rotation thereof and where the potential flow or current are measured in synchronism with the differential pressure and where the zeta potential is then calculated in a known manner. With this process, the deployment of equipment is reduced as well as the time required to measure the electrokinetic zeta potential.
