Particles at Oil–Air Surfaces: Powdered Oil, Liquid Oil Marbles, and Oil Foam [PDF]
ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 2015 The type of material stabilized by four kinds of fluorinated particles (sericite and bentonite platelet clays and spherical zinc oxide) in air-oil mixtures has been investigated. It depends on the particle wettability and the degree of shear. Upon vigorous agitation, oil dispersions are formed in all the oils containing relatively large bentonite ...
