==Application== Since the 1940s, the DLVO theory has been used to explain phenomena found in colloidal science, adsorption and many other fields. Due to the more recent popularity of [[nanoparticle]] research, DLVO theory has become even more popular because it can be used to explain behavior of both material nanoparticles such as [[fullerene]] particles and [[Bacterial adhesion in aquatic system|microorganisms]]. For example, DLVO theory has been widely applied to assess the degree of particle-particle interactions at controlled chemical conditions. For example, it has been used to investigate the colloidal stability of BaSO<sub>4</sub> ([[barium sulfate]]).<ref name="Gallardoetal2000">{{cite journal |last1=Gallardo |first1=V. |last2= Zurita |first2= L. |last3= Ontiveros |first3= A. |last4= Durán |first4= J.D.G. |title= Interfacial properties of barium sulfate suspensions.
