Hamaker constants for the metal particles and surface oxides used in the DLVO calculations
| Material | Hamaker constant (10−20 J) |
|---|---|
| Cu | 28.4 |
| CuO | 2 |
| Mn | 22.6 |
| MnO2 | 7.84 |
| Al | 15.4 |
| Al2O3 | 3.67 |
| ZnO | 1.89 |
Hamaker constants for the metal oxides are calculated effective Hamaker constants as described in Russel et al. (1989)
