Given the DLVO expression for two flat plates and weak electrostatic overlap, 328 (KTY AH 12πh2 2 ze where V(h)=- + exp(-h/2) Y, =–tanh( ze, / AkT ), Derive the expression for the critical coagulation concentration, Ce, defined by the condition that V = dv/dh = 0 What is the meaning of a critical coagulation concentration? How does this meaning relate to the stated criterion?
