The crucial roles of the ionization state and counterion presence on the phase behavior of
fatty acid in aqueous solutions are well-established. However, the effects of counterions on …

Silica nanoparticles (NPs) have shown tremendous application potential as stabilising
agents in foams. The adsorption of cationic surfactants on the surface of NPs through …

Nanoparticles can be efficient foaming agents. Yet, the detailed mechanisms of foam
stabilization by these particles remain unclear. In most cases, the foamability and foam …

The formation and properties of composite layers of silica nanoparticles and an oil-soluble
(fatty) amine surfactant at the oil–water interface have been studied using interfacial …

We report the phase behavior of a dispersion of alumina-coated silica nanoparticles in the
presence of an anionic surfactant (sodium fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether sulfate), and …

The interaction between palmitic acid (PA) and silica nanoparticles at the water/hexane has
been studied in relation to the ability in the stabilization of water in oil emulsions. To this aim …

Particle-stabilized emulsions (Pickering emulsions) have recently attracted significant
attention in scientific studies and for technological applications. The interest stems from the …

Hypothesis. Surface active anionic nanoparticles (NPs) with strategically designed covalent
ligands may be combined with a liked-charged surfactant to form a highly elastic gas–water …

The interactive behaviour of particles and surfactant at an air–water interface has been
investigated, with particular reference to the effect of the interactions on the stability of air …

The adsorption of nonionic surfactants onto hydrophilic nanoparticles (NPs) is anticipated to
increase their stability in aqueous medium. While nonionic surfactants show salinity-and …
