Streaming Potential Measurements on Paraffin Wax H. C. PARREIRA and J. H. SCHULMAN Stanley-Thompson Laboratories, Henry Krumb School of Mines, Columbia University, New York, 27, Ν. Y.
The streaming potentials of a solid paraffin sample were determined for aqueous solutions of various inorganic ions.
Very high values were obtained

for dilute solutions.
The zeta potentials and the
surface charge densities were also calculated. The surface isotherms obtained in the presence of the halide ions investigated suggest that adsorption of the ions takes place in an increasing order, Cl-
