Sustainable and resilient pavement infrastructure is critical for current economic and
environmental challenges. In the past 10 years, the pavement infrastructure strongly …

Oil–water emulsions are widely generated in industries, which may facilitate some
processes (eg, transportation of heavy oil, storage of milk, synthesis of chemicals or …

For decades, discussion of asphaltene structure focused primarily on molecular weight. Now
that it is widely accepted that asphaltene monomers are between∼ 250 and 1200 g/mol …

Asphaltene adsorption at solid surfaces is a ubiquitous phenomenon that begins within the
production well and continues through the entire production chain. It is generally an …

With the ever increasing demand for energy to meet the needs of growth in population and
improvement in the living standards in particular in developing countries, the abundant …

In petroleum science, asphaltenes are well-known as the most refractory fraction of crude oil
and remain infamous for problems in production, transportation, and refining processes …

Unconventional petroleum ores have been considered to be an important part of petroleum
resources and an important alternative source of chemicals and energy supply. Extremely …

Asphaltene structure is one of the most controversial topics in petroleum chemistry. The
controversy is centered on the organization of aromatic cores within asphaltene molecules …

We report classical atomistic molecular dynamics simulations of four structurally diverse
model asphaltenes, a model resin, and their respective mixtures in toluene or heptane under …

Advances in high-resolution Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry
(FT-ICR MS) enable molecular-level characterization of ultracomplex asphaltene samples …
