Among the many performance characteristics to consider when choosing a building wrap, surfactant resistance is one that can be easily overlooked. However, builders and contractors who do not have at ...

Researchers from the Tohoku Univerisity, Japan, and Christian Albrechts University Kiel, Germany, critically review the use of surfactant-coated nanoparticles in the fields of nanomedicine and food ...

Scientists have developed a new lung surfactant that is produced synthetically rather than relying on the use of animal tissues. With further development, the formulation could provide a cheaper and ...

Unconventional reservoirs typically yield less than 10% oil recovery. In the Permian basin, enhanced oil recovery (EOR) schemes include CO 2 injection, huff and puff, water injection, and, to a lesser ...

During titrations, it is crucial to select the right titrant. If the solubility of the formed compounds is lower (their oleophilic properties is greater), the potential jump of the titration curve is ...

Research has found that hazardous chemicals commonly encountered in aerosols, such as those produced by cooking and cleaning, can be 'protected' in 3D structures formed by surfactants, causing them to ...

Glyphosate is one of the most widely used herbicides. However, it is also highly controversial because of its potential carcinogenic properties. Despite the widespread debate, few people are aware ...
