The gel properties of ovalbumin mixtures with three different surfactants (sodium perfluorooctanoate, sodium octanoate and sodium dodecanoate) have been studied by rheological techniques. The gel elasticities were determined ...

Based on the hypothesis that cyclic voltammetry applied to the interface formed by two immiscible electrolyte solutions can be used for determining critical micellar concentrations (cmc) of charged surfactants provided ...

The mixed system of an anionic hydrocarbon surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate, and a perfluorinated surfactant, perfluorononanoic acid (PFNA), was investigated by a combination of methods. The critical micellar concentrations ...

The kinetics of the hydrolysis reaction of p-nitrophenyl perfluoroctanoate were studied in the presence of different amphiphilic systems: two hydrocarbon surfactants (sodium dodecyl sulfate, SDS, and polyoxyethylene(23)lauryl ...

From oilrigs extraction to transport and distribution of petrochemicals, there is always the risk of accidents resulting in fires. In such cases, the release of aqueous film forming foams (AFFF) are a usual practice. These ...
