Irreversible adsorption of negatively charged polystyrene latex particles (averaged diameter 0.9 microm) at heterogeneous surfaces was studied experimentally. The substrate bearing a controlled number of adsorption sites was produced by precovering mica sheets by positively charged polystyrene latex (averaged diameter of 0.45 microm). Positive latex (site) deposition was carried out under diffusion-controlled transport conditions and its coverage was determined by direct particle counting using the optical microscopy. Deposition kinetics of larger latex particles (averaged diameter 0.9 microm) at heterogeneous surfaces produced in this way was studied by direct optical microscope observations in the diffusion cell (under no-convection transport conditions). It was demonstrated that the structure of larger particle monolayers, characterized in terms of the pair correlation function, showed much more short-range ordering than it was predicted for homogeneous surface monolayers at the same coverage. This was found in agreement with theoretical predictions derived from the Monte Carlo simulations. On the other hand, particle adsorption kinetics was quantitatively interpreted in terms of numerical solutions of the governing diffusion equation with the nonlinear boundary condition derived from Monte Carlo simulations. From these kinetic measurements maximum (jamming) coverage of particles was determined in an accurate way by extrapolation. It was concluded that both the monolayer structure and jamming coverage were strongly influenced by the site multiplicity (coordination) effect.
