In this article, we describe the rheology of Na montmorillonite suspensions as a function of pH, at constant ionic strength. The observed behavior is discussed quantitatively in terms of the potential energy of interaction between particles, keeping in mind the anisotropic nature of clay particles.
The effect of pH on the rheological behavior of three purified sodium bentonite (HP, GP, and WP) suspensions is studied. Each clay is studied as a function of pH, at a chosen constant concentration. These concentrations correspond to the lower concentrations at which the yield stress can be detected
