Surfactants and enhanced oil recovery [PDF]

, 1988
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.A large number of commercial and some novel Brunel synthesised surfactants have been studied with a view to their potential usefulness for enhanced oil ...

Phase behaviour of alkyl glycerol ether surfactants

, 1998
In this paper the phase behaviour and physical properties of a series of alkyl (C-6, C-8, C-12 and iso-C-8) monoglycerol ethers and 2-hydroxyalkyl (C-6, C-8, C-12) monoglycerol ethers are presented. The binary phase diagram for the surfactants shows very

Phase-field modeling droplet dynamics with soluble surfactants [PDF]

, 2010
Using lattice Boltzmann approach, a phase-field model is proposed for simulating droplet motion with soluble surfactants. The model can recover the Langmuir and Frumkin adsorption isotherms in equilibrium.

Ester-based surfactants: Are they stable enough? [PDF]

, 2023
Surfactants with an ester bond connecting the polar headgroup and the hydrophobic tail are common. They are easy to synthesize, they can often be made from natural raw materials and their biodegradation profile is generally good, partly due to lipase or ...

Application of [18F]FLT‐PET in pulmonary arterial hypertension: a clinical study in pulmonary arterial hypertension patients and unaffected bone morphogenetic protein receptor type 2 mutation carriers [PDF]

, 2021
Pulmonary arterial hypertension is a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by vascular cell proliferation leading to pulmonary vascular remodelling and ultimately right heart failure. Previous data indicated that 3′‐deoxy‐3′‐[18F]‐fluorothymidine

A Comparison of the Effect of Beractant (Beracsurf) and Proctant Alpha (Curosurf) in Neonatal Respiratory Distress: A Randomized Controlled Trial [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: Surfactant treatment has revolutionized the management of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in preterm infants. The present study compared the effectiveness and adverse effects of two natural surfactants, Beracsurf and Curosurf, in ...

Porcine versus bovine surfactant therapy for RDS in preterm neonates: pragmatic meta-analysis and review of physiopathological plausibility of the effects on extra-pulmonary outcomes

Respiratory Research, 2020
Background While porcine seems to be superior to bovine surfactants in terms of respiratory outcomes, it is unclear if a surfactant can improve extra-pulmonary outcomes in preterm neonates with respiratory distress syndrome and if there is any ...

Surfactant spreading on liquid films in the Stokes regime

AIP Advances, 2022
Characterizing the spreading of surfactants on the surface of a liquid film is central to our understanding of natural and technological processes ranging from cell propulsion and drug delivery in pulmonary airways to cleaning food processing surfaces ...

Pulmonary Surfactant and Drug Delivery: An Interface-Assisted Carrier to Deliver Surfactant Protein SP-D Into the Airways

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
This work is focused on the potential use of pulmonary surfactant to deliver full-length recombinant human surfactant protein SP-D (rhSP-D) using the respiratory air-liquid interface as a shuttle.
