The paper presents a study on the cohesion of volcanic ash particles using surface free energy determination and zeta potential analyses.This is a subject of great interest in physical volcanology,as many researches on volcanic particle aggregation are frequently reported.In this case,special attention is paid to the role of structural or hydration forces between hydrophilic surfaces,which are a consequence of the electron-donor/electron-acceptor character of the interface.From this point of view,the results are potentially interesting as they could give valuable insights into this process.The results are presented in terms of the total energy of interaction between dispersed particles,computed from the extended DLVO theory.Contributions to the total free energy of interaction were determined from the zeta potential and surface free energy of ash,measured under different experimental conditions.Two samples of basaltic volcanic ash(black and white)with silica contents of 44% and 63% respectively are studied.The surface free energy and zeta potential were analysed for ashes immersed in different electrolytes(NaCl,CaCl_2,FeCl_3).The presence of electrolytes changes the surface properties of the solid materials.The analysis of total interaction energy between the ash particles in aqueous medium shows that soil cohesion strongly depends on ash surface properties,chemical nature,the adsorbed cation on the surface,and p H value.

In this case, special attention is paid to the role of structural or hydration forces between hydrophilic surfaces, which are a consequence of the electron-donor / electron-acceptor character of the interface .From this point of view, the results are potential interesting as they could give valuable insights into this process.The results are presented in terms of the total energy of interaction between dispersed particles, computed from the extended DLVO theory. Configurations to the total free energy of interaction were determined from the zeta potential and surface free energy of ash, measured under different experimental conditions. Two samples of basaltic volcanic ash (black and white) with silica contents of 44% and 63% res pectively are studied the surface free energy and zeta potential were analyzed as ashes immersed in different electrolytes (NaCl, CaCl_2, FeCl_3). The presence of electrolytes changes the surface properties of the solid materials. The analysis of total interaction energy between the ash particles in aqueous medium shows that soil cohesion strongly depends on ash surface properties, chemical nature, the adsorbed cation on the surface, and p H value.
