The behavior of nanoscale energetic materials is quite different from micronsized energetic materials in many ways. Recently, some techniques such as sol-gel method, high speed air impaction and vacuum codeposition have been employed to obtain nanoscale energetic materials. However, only few attentions were paid to nanoscale energetic materials because of the fabrication difficulty. In this pap...

The spreading dynamics of surfactant-laden droplets have been studied for both solid and thin liquid substrates. In general, the presence of a surfactant modifies the contact line dynamics due to the Marangoni effect, which creates a surface tension gradient and thus generates pattern-forming instabilities. To determine the effects of varying substrate mobility from a liquid to a solid, we exam...

The interaction of B18 peptide with surfactants has been studied by circular dichroism spectroscopy and fluorescence measurements. B18 is the fusogenic motif of the fertilization sea urchin protein. The peptide forms an alpha-helix structure when interacting with positively or negatively charged surfactants below and above the critical micellar concentration (CMC). The alpha-helix formation is ...

wettability alteration is an important method for increasing oil recovery from oil-wet carbonatereservoirs. chemical agents like surfactants are known as wettability modifiers in carbonate systems.oil can be recovered from initially oil-wet carbonate reservoirs by wettability alteration from oil-wetto water-wet condition with adding dilute surfactant and electrolyte solutions. this paper invest...

A simple and environmentally friendly surfactant-assisted microextraction method combined with high-performance liquid chromatography fluorescence detection was developed for the determination of six fluoroquinolones in chicken livers. In method, analytes were transported into hydrophobic extraction by ionic nonionic surfactants. Three different surfactants studied this purpose, cationic Methyl...

The Pisum sativum (PS), known as the green pea, was used in this investigation to produce a novel surfactant. performance of PS surfactant also evaluated using various tests, including contact angle, IFT, emulsion, zeta potential, and oil recovery factor measurement presence formation brine (FB) with total dissolved solid (TDS) 150,000 ppm. characterization study tests revealed that nonionic. c...
