Chemical dispersants and pre-treatments to determine clay in soils with different mineralogy

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2011
Knowledge of the soil physical properties, including the clay content, is of utmost importance for agriculture. The behavior of apparently similar soils can differ in intrinsic characteristics determined by different formation processes and nature of the

Influence of Succinimide Dispersants on Film Formation, Friction and Antiwear Properties of Zinc Dialkyl Dithiophosphate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
ZDDP (zinc dialkyldithiophosphate) is arguably the most successful antiwear additive ever employed in crankcase engine lubricants. It was originally used as an antioxidant and shortly afterwards recognized for its antiwear and extreme pressure ...

Effect of Corexit 9500A on Mississippi Canyon crude oil weathering patterns using artificial and natural seawater

open access: yesHeliyon, 2017
During the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil well blowout in the Northern Gulf of Mexico (GoM), the application of 6.97 million litres of chemical dispersants was used at the well-head and on the sea surface to promote oil degradation and weathering of the ...

Exploration of marine bacterioplankton community assembly mechanisms during chemical dispersant and surfactant‐assisted oil biodegradation

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Assembly processes in marine microbial communities amended with crude oil and chemical dispersant are poorly understood and even more so when biosurfactants are used.

Laboratory Evaluation Of Chemical Oil Dispersants [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Oil Spill Conference Proceedings, 1969
Abstract This paper describes some of the methods which can be used to evaluate chemical oil dispersants in order to obtain some preliminary data related to their effectiveness as dispersants and problems that may result from their use. Most of the techniques are quite simple and can be done fairly rapidly in the laboratory.

2017 State-of the Science of Dispersants and Dispersed Oil (DDO) in U.S. Arctic Waters: Degradation and Fate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Chemical dispersants were employed on an unprecedented scale during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, and could be a response option should a large spill occur in Arctic waters. The use of dispersants in response to that spill raised
