Colloidal suspensions with free polymer coils which are larger than the colloidal particles are considered. The polymer-colloid interaction is modeled by an extension of the Asakura-Oosawa model. Phase separation occurs into dilute and dense fluid phases of colloidal particles when polymer is added. The critical density of this transition tends to zero as the size of the polymer coils diverges.
The overestimation of orthophosphate by filterable reactive phosphorus (FRP) measurement techniques has long been accepted. The aim of this study was to quantify that overestimation in 17 wetlands over time. Specifically an ultrafiltration technique was used prior to the application of the molybdenum blue phosphorus detection method to quantify orthophosphate concentrations. Samples were collected over a 6-month period and analysed for total filterable (< 0.50 microm) phosphorus (TFP), filterable reactive phosphorus (FRP < 0.50 microm) and ultrafiltered (< 10(3) Da) reactive phosphorus (PO4). FRP correlated well with PO4, however, FRP overestimated PO4 particularly with increasing colloidal phosphorus concentration. The ratio of DOC to TFP (C:P) influenced the fate of PO4 in the water, implying that DOC was forming complexes with phosphorus. The PO4 concentrations decreased with increasing C:P ratios in some of the wetlands over the 6-month monitoring period.
His sixtieth birthday provides an opportunity to describe Mats Almgren's impact on colloid chemistry.
