Abstract:

The adsorption of polyethylene glycol (PEG) on SiC surface was measured by thermal gravimetric (TG) and differential thermal analysis (DTA). The result showed that PEG completely decomposed at 411.5 ℃ in Ar atmosphere. The adsorption amount decreased with the increase of pH and most free dispersant remained in liquid phase at higher pH. The adsorption amount was calculated by the formula (1). This method is adapted to measure the adsorption of organic polymer on oxide or non-oxide which can’t be analyzed by ultraviolet-visible spectrometry.
