Biocompatible Solvents and Ionic Liquid-Based Surfactants as Sustainable Components to Formulate Environmentally Friendly Organized Systems
(MDPI, 2021)In this review, we deal with the formation and application of biocompatible water-in-oil microemulsions commonly known as reverse micelles (RMs). These RMs are extremely important to facilitate the dissolution of hydrophilic ... -
Design and Characterization of Naphthalene Ionic Liquids
(Frontiers, 2020)Surfactants have a great number of applications. Among these chemicals, petroleum sulfonates have been widely used due to their effectiveness in reducing interfacial tension. This is the case of sodium octylnaphthalene ... -
Highly viscoelastic films at the water/air interface: α-Cyclodextrin with anionic surfactants
(Elsevier, 2020)This work showcases the remarkable viscoelasticity of films consisting of α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) and anionic surfactants (S) at the water/air interface, the magnitude of which has not been observed in similar systems. The ... -
Mathematical analysis of some diffusion problems associated to the modeling of surfactant compounds at the air-water interface
(2014-02-04)Surfactants are chemical compounds with a particular structure, that is the responsible of their behavior in a water solution. When a new surface is formed in a surfactant solution, surfactant molecules tend to migrate ...
