Foam Stabilization by Surfactant/SiO2 Composite Nanofluids

This paper deals with the potential of aggregates surfactant and SiO2 nanoparticles as foam stabilizers for practical applications. The effects different chain lengths concentrations cationic CnTAB on performance CnTAB–SiO2 nanofluids are examined to gain a comprehensive understanding their ability stabilize foam. results indicate enhanced stability in presence nanoparticles. These findings help better understand stabilization its various industrial applications such oil recovery foam-based separation processes.
