Based upon an assumed mechanism of particle aggregation by shear-induced interparticle collisions, a new method of studying flocculation in suspensions of large particles is described, and representative results obtained with cellulose–fiber suspensions are presented. The method consists in subjecting the suspension to a reproducible condition of shear motion and analyzing the fluctuations in optical transmission coefficient electronically. An approximate statistical theory is presented on the basis of which a flocculation index (σ/N0) appropriate to the method is proposed. The index is a function of both the number and size of the aggregates. The flocculation index was found to decrease with increasing rate of shear and decreasing fiber length. The effect of concentration and of additives was investigated. Alternative experimental techniques are outlined and limitations to the present method are pointed out.
