Abstract
Different grades of poly (vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) were studied as dispersant for gadolinium doped cerium oxide (CGO) in ethanol-based colloidal dispersions. The average molecular weights Mw, Mn, and Mz were determined by gel
permeation chromatography (GPC), and then used in a numerical method to evaluate the viscosity molecular weight (Mv) via an empirically modified Mark-Houwink-Sakurada (MHS) equation. The MHS equation parameters (a and K), and the polydispersity correction factor (qMHS) were also evaluated. Molecular weight was found to affect only the amount of PVP required
for achieving full stabilized dispersions Indeed, no influence on the packing
properties was observed.
