Effects of Surfactant and Hydrophobic Nanoparticles on the Crude Oil-Water Interfacial Tension
Energies, 2021 Surfactants and nanoparticles play crucial roles in controlling the oil-water interfacial phenomenon. The natural oil-wet mineral nanoparticles that exist in crude oil could remarkably affect water-oil interfacial characteristics.

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 ...

Numerical analysis of interfacial shear degradation effects on axial uplift bearing capacity of a tension pile [PDF]
, 2010 The bearing capacity of tension piles involves complex interactions between the tension-pile with the neighboring sediments. A two-dimensional axisymmetric finite element model (FEM) is proposed and verified with the existing experimental results to ...

Use of the pendant drop method to measure interfacial tension between molten polymers
Materials Research, 1999 In this paper the pendant drop method to measure interfacial tension between molten polymers is reviewed. A typical pendant drop apparatus is presented. The algorithms used to infer interfacial tension from the geometrical profile of the pendant drop are
