Novel film-calliper method of measuring the contact angle of colloidal particles at liquid interfaces (2007)
Journal Article
Fletcher, P. D., Binks, B. P., Horozov, T. S., Braz, D. A., & Clint, J. H. (2008). Novel film-calliper method of measuring the contact angle of colloidal particles at liquid interfaces. Langmuir : the ACS journal of surfaces and colloids, 24(5), 1678-1681. https://doi.org/10.1021/la703414q

A simple and reliable film-calliper method of measuring the particle contact angle at the water-air (oil) interface in real time has been developed. Its applicability to submicrometer and micrometer latex and silica particles is demonstrated.

Foams and foam films stabilised by solid particles (2007)
Journal Article
Horozov, T. S. (2008). Foams and foam films stabilised by solid particles. Current Opinion in Colloid and Interface Science, 13(3), 134-140. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cocis.2007.11.009

Recent developments in the field of particle-stabilised aqueous foams and foam films are reviewed. Reports on ultrastable foams stabilised by solid particles are highlighted and factors responsible for the extraordinary foam stability are discussed i...

Effect of electrolyte in silicone oil-in-water emulsions stabilised by fumed silica particles (2007)
Journal Article
Horozov, T., Binks, B. P., & Gottschalk-Gaudig, T. (2007). Effect of electrolyte in silicone oil-in-water emulsions stabilised by fumed silica particles. Physical chemistry chemical physics : PCCP, 9(48), 6398-6404. https://doi.org/10.1039/b709807n

Partially hydrophobised fumed silica particles are used to make silicone oil-in-water emulsions at natural pH of the aqueous phase. The stability and rheological properties of the emulsions and suspensions are studied at NaCl concentrations in the ra...
