Evaluation of the Influence of Antifoam Formulations on Asphaltene Aggregates Using AFM and SEM‐EDS
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 3, January 15, 2026.ABSTRACT Asphaltenes, naturally occurring surfactants in crude oil play a pivotal role in stabilizing oily foams during primary oil processing. Accordingly, understanding how antifoam formulations influence asphaltene aggregation is essential. This study investigates the effect of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) with varying molar masses on asphaltene ...

Review of Flash Joule Heating for the Synthesis of Graphene and Other Functional Carbon Materials
Carbon Energy, Volume 8, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Flash Joule heating (FJH), as a high‐efficiency and low‐energy consumption technology for advanced materials synthesis, has shown significant potential in the synthesis of graphene and other functional carbon materials. Based on the Joule effect, the solid carbon sources can be rapidly heated to ultra‐high temperatures (> 3000 K) through ...

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 1, Page 425-441, January 2026.Abstract Solvent‐assisted recovery methods have gained attention as an alternative to conventional thermal methods which have significant environmental drawbacks and high greenhouse gas emissions. Solvent‐assisted recovery methods can lead to various phase equilibria, such as vapour–liquid equilibrium (VLE) and liquid–liquid equilibrium (LLE), under ...

Thermal Conversion of Heavy Oil Systems and Analysis of Structural Changes of their High Components with PMR Method [PDF]
, 2014 Heavy oil systems are thermolyzed with different ratios of amount of resins and asphaltenes: 3.4, 3.8, 5.3, and 12.4. The change in yield and composition of gaseous, liquid and solid products of thermolysis is shown depending on the ratio of the resin ...
