Surfactant-Nanoparticle Formulations at Calcite-Water and Oil-Water Interfaces for Enhanced Oil Recovery (2023)
Thesis
Rezvani, H. Surfactant-Nanoparticle Formulations at Calcite-Water and Oil-Water Interfaces for Enhanced Oil Recovery. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4564632

There is a growing interest in the development of new and innovative enhanced oil recovery (EOR) technologies to reduce the environmental impact of oil production. Surfactant flooding is a well-established EOR method but mainly suffers from high adso...

Competition between hydrogen bonding and electrostatic repulsion in pH-switchable emulsions (2023)
Journal Article
Lv, M., Shi, J., Binks, B. P., Jiang, J., & Cui, Z. (2023). Competition between hydrogen bonding and electrostatic repulsion in pH-switchable emulsions. Journal of Molecular Liquids, 390(B), Article 123095. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.molliq.2023.123095

Electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonding play important roles in the stabilization of self-assembled systems. However, the competition between hydrogen bonding and electrostatic repulsion in emulsions hasn't been reported. Herein, we report on...
