Resuspension of particles: the range of validity of the quasi-stationary theories. [From surfaces]

Journal Article · · J. Colloid Interface Sci.; (United States)
;
The quasi-stationary approximations (1,2) for the resuspension of surface-borne or adsorbed particles provide simple expressions for the rate of escape of particles. These expressions are valid for sufficiently high potential barriers that cause the particles to be rather strongly bound to the surface; i.e., the expressions are valid for sufficiently small escape rates. However, the range of validity of these simple escape-rate expressions has never been established. This investigation establishes their range of validity.
