Fabrication of Stable Oleofoams with Sorbitan Ester Surfactants (2022)
Journal Article
Liu, Y., & Binks, B. P. (2022). Fabrication of Stable Oleofoams with Sorbitan Ester Surfactants. Langmuir : the ACS journal of surfaces and colloids, 38(48), 14779–14788. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.langmuir.2c02413

Sorbitan esters have been extensively used as surfactants to stabilize emulsions in many fields. However, the preparation of an oleofoam with sorbitan ester alone has not been reported. Here, we apply a novel protocol to fabricate stable oleofoams of... Read More about Fabrication of Stable Oleofoams with Sorbitan Ester Surfactants.

Edible surfactants at fluid-fluid interfaces (2021)
Thesis
Liu, Y. Edible surfactants at fluid-fluid interfaces. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4223435

This thesis probes into the adsorption properties of several edible surfactants/fats at a range of fluid-fluid interfaces, e.g. air-oil, air-water and water-oil. Based on this, various colloidal materials are fabricated including aqueous and oil foam... Read More about Edible surfactants at fluid-fluid interfaces.

Foams of vegetable oils containing long-chain triglycerides (2020)
Journal Article
Liu, Y., & Binks, B. P. (2021). Foams of vegetable oils containing long-chain triglycerides. Journal of colloid and interface science, 583, 522-534. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jcis.2020.09.043

© 2020 Elsevier Inc. Hypothesis: Can vegetable oils containing long-chain triglycerides be aerated to yield stable oil foams? This is based on the idea that cooling of vegetable oil results in the formation of crystals of certain triglyceride chain l...
