Electrostatic interaction of neutral semipermeable membranes
Olga I. Vinogradova, Lyderic Bocquet, Artem N. Bogdanov +2
We consider an osmotic equilibrium between bulk solutions of polyelectrolyte bounded by semipermeable membranes and separated by a thin film of salt-free liquid. Although the membr…
Capillary pressure of van der Waals liquid nanodrops
R. Tsekov, B. V. Toshev
The dependence of the surface tension on a nanodrop radius is important for the new-phase formation process. It is demonstrated that the famous Tolman formula is not unique and the…
Flocculation of vesicles
R. Tsekov
The flocculation of liposomes is theoretically studied. An expression for the flocculation activation energy is derived, accounting for the electrostatic and hydrophobic interactio…
Adsorption component of the disjoining pressure in thin liquid films
R. Tsekov
The disjoining pressure isotherm in foam films is theoretically studied and an important contribution of adsorption is discovered. On the basis of the interfacial thermodynamics an…
Wetting film dynamics and stability
B. Radoev, K. W. Stoeckelhuber, R. Tsekov +1
Although the wetting films are similar in many aspects to other thin liquid films, there are some differences in their behavior, too. In contrast to soap and emulsion films, whose…
