DOI: 10.1002/adhm.202203363
Abstract: The use of microfluidics for oil-in-water (O/W) nanoemulsification via spontaneous self-assembly is demonstrated. As this is known to be a longish process, both single- and multi-contact microfluidic reactors were tested, the latter providing a longsome,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfa.2016.05.041
Abstract: Abstract Spontaneous formation of aqueous droplets in kerosene was observed, which was facilitated by the presence of an oil soluble surfactant: Span® 80 at concentrations above CMC. Kerosene/water interfacial tension under all conditions studied was… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2016.10.010
Abstract: Lecithin-rich mixtures of the nontoxic surfactants lecithin and Tween 80 are effective marine oil spill dispersants, but produce much higher oil-water interfacial tension than other, comparably effective dispersants. This suggests interfacial phenomena other than interfacial… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.langmuir.7b01398
Abstract: Colloidal particles of controlled size are promising building blocks for the self-assembly of functional materials. Here, we systematically study a method to synthesize monodisperse, micrometer-sized spheres from 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate (TPM) in a benchtop experiment. Their… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/10916466.2018.1446172
Abstract: ABSTRACT In order to achieve the highly efficient development of heavy oil reservoirs, fatty acid alkanolamide bipolyoxyethylene ether (NS) is used to emulsify the oil spontaneously. After 12 hours' standing at the temperature of 65°C,… read more here.
