abstract = {Mass transport caused by a temperature gradient, influences
many processes such as magmatic differentiation, biological
transport and it has been used in characterization of
polymers, colloids and protein interactions. In the last
years especially its application potential in the analysis
of protein-ligand binding and the understanding of the
movement of biological active matter in temperature
gradients gained a lot of interest. Due to a lack of a
microscopic understanding we use colloidal model systems to
perform systematic experiments and to compare with
theoretical concepts. Conceptually two theoretical
approaches are used to describe the motion of charged
colloidal particles in a temperature gradient: One
contribution is stemming from the double layer around the
particle [1] and another contribution is caused by an
electric field created by added salt ions, which form an ion
concentration gradient in the temperature field [2]. We used
the double-layer concept to describe the Soret coefficient
of Ludox particles as a function of the Debye length [2] and
found good agreement between experiment and theory using
only one adjustable parameter (intercept at zero Debye
length). Later the concept was extended to charged colloidal
rods without and with a grafted polymer layer [3]. In the
experiments we use rod-like fd-virus particles as a model
system for charged rods. Here we used the surface charge
density as an additional adjustable parameter. Applying the
theoretical model to the experimental data we found a
surface charge density, which compares well to the one
determined by electrophoresis measurements taking into
account the ion condensation. Finally, we discuss literature
result using various salts [6] under which conditions the
Seebeck contributions can be separated from chemical
contributions in thermophoresis experiments.REFERENCES[1]
