The surface tension and interfacial composition of water/ethanol mixture [PDF]
, 2021 This study develops a model to fit the surface tension of the water/ethanol mixture for the complete composition range from 0 to 1. The theoretical framework complements Van Der Waals theory on the density gradient.

Interfacial tension of bilayer lipid membranes
Open Chemistry, 2012 Interfacial tension is an important characteristic of a biological membrane because it determines its rigidity, thus affecting its stability. It is affected by factors such as medium pH and by the presence of certain substances, for example cholesterol ...

Measurement of Interfacial Tension between Polymer Melts: Improved Imbedded Fiber Retraction, Breaking Thread and Dynamic Viscoelasticity Methods [PDF]
, 1999 We improved the imbedded fiber retraction (IFR) method as a simple method to obtain the interfacial tension between polymer melts. A force balance equation for a fiber in an immiscible matrix by Cohen and Carriere is solved for a more realistic fiber ...

Performance evaluation of temperature-resistant nano-surfactants [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2022 Surfactant flooding is a common technique in tertiary oil recovery. However, due to the high temperature of some reservoirs and the strong heterogeneity caused by their own geological conditions, the use of common surfactants in high-temperature ...

Determination of the Minimum Miscible Pressure of the Supercritical Carbon Dioxide and the Formation Oil System by the Pendant Drop Method [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Chemistry & Chemical Engineering, 2022 Carbon dioxide miscible displacement plays an important role in the field of miscible displacement for enhanced oil recovery. However, there is a very important relationship between the formation of miscible displacement and the minimum miscible pressure.
