Characterisation of self-assembly in cationic-oligoanion mixtures: from micel...
The proposal is part of an EPSRC funded programme (EP/GR065705) on surfactant multilayer structures, and involves the interaction between ionic surfactants and oligoions. It... -
On the peculiarities of the structure of particle stabilised foam
Many formulated products pass through or end up as foams, comprising immiscible millimeter sized bubbles dispersed into an aqueous continuous phase. Frequently, surfactants or... -
Structural studies of surfactants at the metal-aqueous interface
This proposal relates to the structural studies of cationic surfactant adsorption on an iron oxide metal surface. The driving force for the adsorption of cationic surfactants to... -
Surfactant mixing at hydrophilic solid/liquid interfaces: (A) air/water measu...
The overall objective is to model the amount and composition of adsorbed mixtures of three types of zwitterionic surfactant and two charged surfactants at the silica/water... -
Formulating polymer solutions to stabilise polymeric foams
Polyurethane foams (PUF) are commonly prepared by mixing Pluronic type copolymers and isocyanate reactive monomers in the presence of additives e.g. catalysts, blowing agents... -
Interaction of polypeptide with surfactant on the surface of water
This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding the adsorption of collagen based polypeptide and its interaction with ionic surfactants at the... -
