Abstract

Colloidal dispersions in hydrocarbons of lead and calcium salts of isooctanoic acids are studied by means of Transmission Electron Microscopy and Light Scattering. The complementary results obtained, using each technique, allow us to investigate the structure of the mineral core, the size and the morphology of the colloidal particles. Special attention is paid to the aggregation properties of the metal salts particles as a function of the dilution and solvent.
