Surface tension and contact angle measurements of a hexadecyl imidazolium surfactant adsorbed on a clay surface
The surface tension of 1,2-dimethyl-3-N-hexadecyl imidazolium tetrafluoroborate (Im BF4) as a function of concentration has been measured. Between 10−5 and 4× 10−4 mol/L, the surface tension decreases with increasing imidazolium concentration. Aggregate formation appears to occur at a concentration near 4× 10−4 mol/L for temperatures between 50 and 75 ◦C. Small angle neutron scattering measurem...
متن کاملConstrained sessile drop as a new configuration to measure low surface tension in lung surfactant systems.
Existing methodology for surface tension measurements based on drop shapes suffers from the shortcoming that it is not capable to function at very low surface tension if the liquid dispersion is opaque, such as therapeutic lung surfactants at clinically relevant concentrations. The novel configuration proposed here removes the two big restrictions, i.e., the film leakage problem that is encount...
متن کاملSurgical Dynamometer to Simultaneously Measure the Tension Forces and the Distance between Wound Edges during the Closure of a Laparotomy
The closure of the abdominal wall after making a laparotomy is a major challenge for surgeons, since a significant percentage of closures fail and incisional hernias rise. The suture has to withstand the forces required to close the incision, while not hindering the adequate wound healing progression. Currently, there is no surgical measuring device that could be used to determine the required ...
متن کاملWater‐CO2‐mineral systems: Interfacial tension, contact angle, and diffusion—Implications to CO2 geological storage
[1] The interfacial interaction between mineral surfaces and immiscible fluids determines the efficiency of enhanced oil or gas recovery operations as well as our ability to inject and store CO2 in geological formations. Previous studies have shown that the interfacial tension and contact angle in CO2‐water‐mineral systems change noticeably with fluid pressure. We compile previous results and e...
متن کاملA new model for contact angle hysteresis
We present a model which explains several experimental observations relating contact angle hysteresis with surface roughness. The model is based on the balance between released energy and dissipation, and it describes the stick–slip behavior of drops on a rough surface using ideas similar to those employed in dry friction, elasto– plasticity and fracture mechanics. The main results of our analy...
