I have been trying to derive a kinetic model for aggregation of asphaltene molecules in molecular scale. I am looking for similar models in gas hydrates or colloidal particles in molecular scales to verify my model with such models.
If you know some, I would be more than grateful to introduce such models to me with their references.

A little research will bring up the von Smoluchowski equation... from 1916:
Smoluchowski, Marian (1916). "Drei Vorträge über Diffusion, Brownsche Molekularbewegung und Koagulation von Kolloidteilchen". Phys. Z. (in German). 17: 557–571, 585–599
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoluchowski_coagulation_equation
I mention this and related matters in this webinar (registration needed); slide 37 or so:
The importance of the measurement of diffusion in 2-phase systems

If you want a good readable text in English, I recommend Chapter 5 'Coagulation' in 'Particulate clouds: Dusts, Smokes and Mists' by H L Green & W R Lane Publisher: E & F N Spon Ltd., London WC2 (1957). You can get a copy on Abebooks for $11 or so excluding postage: https://www.abebooks.com/servlet/SearchResults?sts=t&cm_sp=SearchF-_-home-_-Results&an=Green+Lane&tn=Particulate+clouds&kn=&isbn=
Otherwise Inter-Library Loan (the Loan Arranger) if your library does not have it.

I do really appreciate. I will read the chapter ASAP.
Besides, Smoluchowski's equation is a great starting point.
Thanks a millions.
