Electrostatic Heteroaggregation in Colloidal Systems: Fundamentals and Applications



Abstract :
The aggregation of oppositely charged nanoparticles and colloids is highly relevant across various disciplines such as materials physics, food technology, pharmaceutical formulation, environmental science, and interfacial engineering. This talk will explore key aspects of the fundamentals of aggregation between oppositely charged particles, commonly known as electrostatic hetero-aggregation. Additionally, the presentation will highlight applications of this principle in designing patchy colloids and porous structures for enhancing efficacy of catalytic reactions.

All are cordially invited.
