In this review, we highlight and discuss the effects of interfacial properties on the major
mechanisms governing the aging of emulsions: flocculation, coalescence and Ostwald …

The influence of surfactants is of great importance to the interfacial properties, which is
related by the characteristics of molecular arrays at the interface of multicomponent and …

This study investigates the surface modification of poly (vinylidene fluoride)(PVDF)
membranes using polydopamine (PDA) and titanium dioxide (TiO 2) for effective separation …

The interfacial dilational rheology of silica nanoparticles (NPs) directly reflects the
relationship between surface structure and interfacial behaviors in NPs, which has attracted …

Oil polarity is an important property impacting the efficiency of low salinity waterflooding
(LSWF). It directly affects fluid/fluid and rock/fluid interactions, controlling the interfacial …

Smart water flooding is one of the most promising methods for Enhanced Oil Recovery
(EOR). However, the exact mechanism beyond is still unknown and the comprehensive …

Microscale crosslinked polymeric hydrogels, termed microgels, have attracted considerable
attention as enhancing oil recovery (EOR) agents due to their favorable in-depth fluid …

The evaporation of a colloidal droplet on a solid surface produces a ring-like structure at the
pinned contact line due to induced capillary flow, also known as the coffee-ring effect (CRE) …

The influence of surfactants (Span 80, Span 60, PGPR and sodium caseinate) on the
stability of W/O emulsions stabilized by diacylglycerol (DAG)-based solid Lipid nanoparticles …

One of the major challenges in controlling the colloidal stability in nonpolar solvents
concerns their surface charging strength. By tuning surface chemical structures in nonpolar …
