Abstract
The effect of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) on positively charged hydrous ferric oxide sols (FOS) was studied by following turbidity and electrophoretic mobility as a function of increasing concentration of added SDS and by determining the adsorption isotherm. Adsorption of SDS reduced the electric charge of FOS and caused flocculation. Complete precipitation occurred near zero charge. Further increase in SDS concentration resulted in smaller additional adsorption, charge reversal, and redispersion of FOS. The effect of increasing particle size, resulting from aging or dialysis, on SDS adsorption is discussed qualitatively.
