Turbidimetric evaluation of the solubilization rate: dissolution of dodecane nanodrops in 7.5 mM sodium dodecylsulfate solutions at selected sodium chloride concentrations
Jose Daniel Rodriguez, Maurice Espinoza, Kareem Rahn-Chique +1
The rate of micelle solubilization (SR) can be appraised following the decrease of the radius of a macroscopic drop of oil in contact with a surfactant solution [Todorov, 2002]. Al…
Electric surface potential of dodecane nano-drops in aqueous solutions of low ioinic strength
Daniela Diaz, Kareem Rahn-Chique, German Urbina-Villalba
While the surface charge of solid particles is a direct consequence of their synthesis, the one of suspended oil drops depends on the adsorption equilibrium of the surrounding mole…
Influence of surfactant crystallization on the aggregation rate of dodecane-in-water nanoemulsions. Changes in the viscosity of the external phase
Daniela Diaz, Kareem Rahn-Chique, Neyda Garcia-Valera +1
Rates of aggregation of dodecane-in-water (d/w) nanoemulsions stabilized with 7.5 mM sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) are evaluated beyond 500 mM NaCl. As in the case of hexadecane-in-w…
Use of two-particle simulations for the evaluation of the flocculation rate in the case of insurmountable repulsive barriers
German Urbina-Villalba
The interaction potential between two colloidal particles typically spans a few nanometers. Hence the correct appraisal of the potential in simulations requires very short time ste…
Use of the theory of Lifshitz-Slyosov-Wagner for the evaluation of the aqueous solubility of dodecane
Loredana Espinoza, Kareem Rahn-Chique, Issarly Rivas +1
The solubility of dodecane was determined using the theory of Lifshitz-Slyosov-Wagner for the Ostwald ripening phenomenon. For this purpose, a set of dodecane in water nanoemulsion…
Theoretical Prediction and experimental measurement of the mixed flocculation/coalescence rate of ionic Hexadecane-in-water nano-emulsions
German Urbina-Villalba, Neyda Garcia-Valera, Kareem Rahn-Chique
Theoretical calculations of the mixed aggregation/coalescence (kFC) rate corresponding to a set of hexadecane-in-water nano-emulsions stabilized with sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS)…
