This review addresses the advances made with specular neutron reflectometry in studies of
aqueous mixtures of polymers and surfactants at fluid interfaces during the last decade (or …

The growth of free-standing surfactant-templated films of inorganic oxides at the air–solution
interface is an attractive route to manufacture unsupported mesostructured membranes for a …

Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) and UV–visible spectroscopy studies have been
carried out to examine pH-dependent interactions and resultant structures of oppositely …

The mechanisms of formation of organically modified (phenyl, vinyl, and methyl) silica
materials with cubic Pm 3̅ n and hexagonal p 6 m periodic mesostructures obtained in one …

Self-assembly processes and corresponding phase boundaries depend on the structure of
interacting molecules. We have studied the effect of surfactant head-group structure and …

The effects of fatty acids on oppositely charged polyelectrolyte–surfactant interactions are
experimentally investigated. It was observed that dodecanoic (lauric) acid (LA) disrupts the …

Polymer/silica composite films, stable to calcination, were produced using catanionic
surfactant mixtures (hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and sodium dodecyl …

The interaction mechanisms of an oppositely charged polyelectrolyte–surfactant pair and
dodecanoic (lauric) acid (LA) were experimentally investigated using a combination of …

Kinetic details of mesostructured silicate–surfactant films formed at the air–water interface of
acidic solutions of cetyltrimethylammoium bromide and tetraethyl orthosilicate were …

This study investigates the impact of NiaxTM Silicone L-5440, a silicon-based surfactant, on
the foaming behaviors of rigid polyurethane foam (RPUF) filled with aluminium hydroxide …
