Surface chemistry is believed to be the key parameter affecting the aggregation and breakage of colloidal suspensions when subjected to shear. To date, only a few works dealt with the understanding of the role of the physical and chemical properties of the particles’ surface upon aggregation under shear. Previous studies suggested that surface modifications strongly affect polymer...
