Mixed surfactants for positive synergism in dense CO2
This proposal aims to explore a cheaper and more environmental-benign surfactant system for yielding efficient water/CO2 microemulsions. The new surfactants permit high... -
Mechanism of charging metal oxide colloids in non-polar solvents
Contrast-variation SANS (CV SANS) will be used to determine how surfactant inverse micelles interact with model metal oxide colloids. By using deuterated surfactant (D-AOT) with...
