Micellar modifiers for CO2
This proposal focuses on a new approach to the formation of rod-like micelles in supercritical CO2 (scCO2). Recent successful high-pressure SANS (HP-SANS) results have shown for... -
Opening up microemulsion phases in CO2
New types of water-in-CO2 microemulsions using mixed surfactant systems will be investigated by high-pressure SANS (HP-SANS). Exciting new results (see report on RB820030) have... -
Adsorption of Aerosol-OT at the Calcite-Oil interface
The interface of CaCO3 (calcite) and water or oil is of paramount importance in a number of key academic and industrial areas, not least oil recovery and scale deposition in... -
calcite oil interface
The interface of CaCO3 (calcite) and oil is of paramount importance in a number of key academic and industrial areas, not least oil recovery. Neutron reflection has proved to be... -
Rod-like micelles as CO2 fluid thickeners
Using LOQ, we have recently shown that self-assembly of fluoro-sulfocuccinate surfactants is indeed a viable approach to promote viscosity enhancement in liquid CO21 (Rod-like...
