Surface Tension of Water Solutions of Fluorophosphorus Compounds.

Prediction of Surface Tension in Single and Mixed Electrolyte Solutions

comparison of catalytic activity of heteropoly compounds in the synthesis of bis(indolyl)alkanes.

heteropoly acids (hpa) and their salts have advantages as catalysts which make them both economically and environmentally attractive, strong br?nsted acidity, exhibiting fast reversible multi-electron redox transformations under rather mild conditions, very high solubility in polar solvents, fairly high thermal stability in the solid states, and efficient oxidizing ability, so that they are imp...

The Surface Tension of Physiological Solutions

1. Data are given to show that surface tension values obtained by the ring method cannot be considered reliable when absolute values are desired. 2. Data are given to show that, in the case of solutions of semicolloids, surface tension values obtained for a definite period of time following the formation of a new interface cannot always be consistently reproduced by the ring method. 3. It is sh...

The Dynamic Surface Tension of Water

The surface tension of water is an important parameter for many biological or industrial processes, and roughly a factor of 3 higher than that of nonpolar liquids such as oils, which is usually attributed to hydrogen bonding and dipolar interactions. Here we show by studying the formation of water drops that the surface tension of a freshly created water surface is even higher (∼90 mN m-1) than...

An Experimental Investigation of Water Effects on Asphaltene Surface Behavior through Interfacial Tension Measurements

As a physiochemical property, asphaltenes are known to be one the most surface active compounds in crude oil. Due to such property, their behavior is most probably influenced by fluid-fluid interactions at the contact surface (interface). Potentially and naturally, in most cases, water is in contact with crude oil and is co-produced with it as well. Considering that asphaltene molecules are pol...
