Critical viscoelastic study of the gelation of silica particles

Year: 1987

Type: article

Abstract: We present an analysis of the critical behaviour of viscosity and elastic modulus during the gelation of silica particles. Two systems are studied : gelation in NaCl solutions and in pure water. The experiments show a cross-over between entropic elasticity near the gelation threshold and « mechanical » elasticity farther from it.
