We report electrostatic stabilization of micrometer-sized TiO2 particles at long range (several micrometers) in liquid and supercritical CO2 despite the ultralow dielectric constant, as low as 1.5. The counterions were solubilized in dry reverse micelles, formed with a low-molecular weight cationic perfluoropolyether trimethylammonium acetate surfactant, to prevent ion pairing with the particle surface. Dynamic light scattering and settling velocities indicate a particle diameter of 620-740 nm. The electrophoretic mobility of -2.3 x 10(-8) m(2)/V s indicated a particle charge on the order of -1.7 x 10(-17) C, or 105 elementary negative charges per particle. The balance of particle compression by an electric field versus electrostatic repulsion generated an amorphous arrangement of particles with 5-9 mu m spacing, indicating Debye lengths greater than 1 mu m. Scattering patterns also indicate that chains of particles may be achieved in CO2 by dielectrophoresis with alternating fields. The electrostatic stabilization has been achieved by solubilizing a small concentration of counterions in only a small fraction of the reverse micelles in the double layer. Whereas many low-molecular weight surfactants have been shown to form reverse micelles in CO2, very few polymers are able to stabilize micrometer-sized colloids sterically. Thus, electrostatic stabilization has the potential to expand markedly the domain of colloid science in apolar supercritical fluids.
