foam injection is widely applied in amounts of fields to drilling, production, and formation protection. sometimes, the application result is disappointing, which is caused by the failure of bubble generation in foam flooding. therefore, it is necessary to seek ways for improving the performance of foam injection. an increased disturbance to the stratum, like the vibration caused by a seismic o...

The present work was aimed to examine the effects of incorporation of each of two different types of nanoclay, i.e. Cloisite Na+ and Cloisite 30B, into PVA foam on cellular morphology and water absorption capacity. Foam samples containing 0.0-10.0 wt% of each of the two types of nanoclay alone were prepared using mechanical foaming. Accordingly, PVA/organoclay/water suspensions were prepare...

Introduction The unique properties of carbon foam mainly depend on the precursor features and synthesis conditions. For the highly thermal and electrical conductive carbon foam, an anisotropic pitch precursor is required [1, 2]. A lot of factors influence the foaming process, but temperature and pressure are the most critical aspects [3]. The aim of the present investigations is to adjust by ap...

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 hel...

This review focuses on the role of proteins in the production and maintenance of foam in both sparkling wines and beer. The quality of the foam in beer but especially in sparkling wines depends, among other factors, on the presence of mannoproteins released from the yeast cell walls during autolysis. These proteins are hydrophobic, highly glycosylated, and their molecular masses range from 10 t...

A capillary sieving electrophoretic method for protein analysis and molecular weight determination was used to characterize ciders from Asturias, northern Spain. The total protein content (Bradford method) and the foam parameters (Bikerman method) were also analyzed to complete this characterization. The polypeptide profile, based on the molecular weight, together with exploratory and classific...

[Purpose] The aim of this study was to investigate whether gaze stabilization exercise derives sensory reweighting of vestibular for upright postural control. [Subjects and Methods] Twenty-three healthy volunteers participated in this study. The center of pressure of the total trajectory length was measured before (pre), immediately after (post), and 10 min after (post10) gaze stabilization exe...
