| abstract |
The present invention relates to dispersions of mineral particles in a hydrophobic organic medium (organosols) which are stabilized by amphiphilic polymers comprising: a polymer chain of hydrophobic nature, exhibiting an affinity with respect to the dispersing organic medium; and a non-polymer end group, linked to said hydrophobic polymer chain, and which carries at least one R <A> group capable of developing interactions with the surface of the particles. The invention also relates to processes for the preparation of these suspensions, as well as various possible uses of these organosols. |
