Cohesive force apparatus for interactions between particles in surfactant and polymer solutions
نویسندگان
چکیده
Measurement of forces between two individual particles in the millimeter and micrometer size range is difficult to accomplish and yet these are the particles that are normally encountered in many commercial systems. A cohesive force apparatus (CFA) first used by one of the authors [E.D. Shchukin, R.K. Yusupov, E.A. Amelina, P.A. Rebinder, Kolloidn. Zh. 31 (1969) 913] was modified here for studying cohesive force down t g f i t g o ( i t t ©

Effect of Carbon Nanotube and Surfactant on Processing, Mechanical, Electrical and EMI-Shielding of Epoxy Composites
Dispersing nanoparticles in a polymer matrix is intrinsically challenging due to unfavorable entropic interactions between the matrix and the nanoparticle. In this research dispersion of nanoparticles in polymer matrix was studied and the effect of dispersion on properties was investigated. The properties of polymer composite depend on the type, size, shape, concentration of nanoparticles, and ...
متن کاملMicromechanical cohesion force between gas hydrate particles measured under high pressure and low temperature conditions.
To prevent hydrate plugging conditions in the transportation of oil/gas in multiphase flowlines, one of the key processes to control is the agglomeration/deposition of hydrate particles, which are determined by the cohesive/adhesive forces. Previous studies reporting measurements of the cohesive/adhesive force between hydrate particles used cyclopentane hydrate particles in a low-pressure micro...
متن کاملInteractions between surfactant-coated surfaces in hydrocarbon liquids containing functionalized polymer dispersant
Knowledge of the structure and interactions of mixed polymer/surfactant colloidal systems is essential for simultaneously controlling the stability and rheological properties of colloidal dispersions such as emulsions and lubricating oils [1, 2]. The surfactant and polymer together provide stability against coagulation and control the viscosity of the ̄uid, the practical aim being to produce hig...
متن کاملFoaming and foam stability for mixed polymer-surfactant solutions: effects of surfactant type and polymer charge.
Solutions of surfactant-polymer mixtures often exhibit different foaming properties, compared to the solutions of the individual components, due to the strong tendency for formation of polymer-surfactant complexes in the bulk and on the surface of the mixed solutions. A generally shared view in the literature is that electrostatic interactions govern the formation of these complexes, for exampl...
متن کاملSurface forces measurements on a cationic polymer in the presence of an anionic surfactantl
Surface forces measurements have been made between adsorbed layers on mica of a cationic polymer (Polymer JR-400) in distilled water, both in the absence and in the presence of the anionic surfactant sodium dodecylsulfate. In the absence of surfactant, the polymer was bound to the oppositely charged mica surface and exhibited hysteresis force curves which were monotonically repulsive up to a co...
