Ordering in Suspended Charged Particles: Structures in Soft Matter of Charged Particles Rakesh Kumar Pandey

During the last few decades colloid science- a sub division of soft matter, which is a very complicated field, have received an increased attention for its study because of its important practical applications viz. phase transition, ordered/disordered, etc. The present book contains a detail of governing parameters of ordering and disordering phenomenon existing amongst the suspension of charged particles explained in terms of structure factor/pair correlation function using DLVO- a purely repulsive potential and CAP- a repulsive in nature at short distance and attractive in nature at large distances. The coordination numbers, compressibility and excess energy have also been given. Of course, the book is a collection of my twenty-five years of research in the field of Soft Matter Physics as well as teaching experiences may be valuable assets for those who are involved in the field of ordering of soft matter. Therefore, the primary aim of the present volume is to assist researchers in the field of ordering in soft matters.
