The volumetric sweep efficiencies of CO 2 flooding for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) are
generally low due to problems of viscous fingering and gravity override. This paper attempts …

We used molecular dynamics simulations to examine the surface adsorption of a model
antiagglomerant (AA) molecule binding to an sII methane–propane hydrate in environments …

Hypothesis In solvent casting, colloidal nanocrystal self-assembly patterns are controlled by
a mix of cohesive and repulsive interactions that promote destabilization-induced self …

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 …

In this study, a cationic gemini surfactant with cleavable spacer and two monomeric single
chain counterparts were synthesized and used. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) …

The occurrence of microplastics in drinking water has drawn increasing attention due to their
ubiquity and unresolved implications regarding human health. Despite achieving high …

We present an experimental study of viscous fingering caused by the displacement of an oil
phase by non-Newtonian fluids such as Carbopol® 940 with and without surfactant (SDS) …

The micellization of ionic surfactants in aqueous media reflects a balance between the
hydrophobic attraction of surfactant tails and the electrostatic repulsion of surfactant …

Advanced therapies are commonly administered via injection even when they act within the
skin tissue, and this increases the chances of off-target effects. Here we report the use of a …
