Chapter 1: Colloidal Particles at Liquid Interfaces An Introduction

Table 1.1: Stability of water films in octane and octane films in water stabilised by silica particles. Unstable films break during their formation or several seconds later. Stable films survive for up to ~ 30 min, while those denoted as very stable live more than 1 h. Taken from Ref. [45]; with permission of the American Chemical Society.
Table 1.2: Effect of hydrophobicity of the solid particle sodium zeolite/titania catalyst, of size 10 40 ?m, on the epoxidation of normal alkenes at the alkene aqueous H ₂O ₂ interface. Taken from Ref. [75]; re-drawn with permission of the American Chemical Society.
Table 1.3: Correlation between age of bacterial culture of Nocardia amarae, contact angle of bacteria at air water surface and the extent of demulsification (after 24 hrs.) of either o/w or w/o emulsions involving a different petroleum on adding 500 ppm of cells. Taken from Refs. [103] and [104]; re-drawn with permission of Springer-Verlag.
Table 1.4: Correlation between the recovery of various solids from water using heptane and the contact angle of the solid at the oil water interface (measured through water). Taken from Ref. [119]; re-drawn with permission of Pergamon Press.

Table 3.1: Typical parameter values for the hydrophobic interaction potential between half spaces. Taken from Ref. [29]; with permission of Academic Press.
