Foaming in Micellar Solutions: Effects of Surfactant, Salt, and Oil Concentrations

Abstract: Foaming in products based on micellar solutions has considerable importance in various consumer applications, such as washing and cleaning. In this work, the effects of surfactant concentration, oil content, and salts containing mono-, di-, and trivalent counterions on foam formation and stability were studied. The foams were generated by employing the Blender Test. The presence of salts caused a significant reduction in foam volume. Effectiveness of the salts followed the sequence Al 3+ > Ca 2+ > Na + .

“…Interestingly, aquafaba from brand (H), that did not contain these salt or additives, produced foam with greater capacity and stability. It was previously reported that the addition of salt while whipping enhanced foam stability for protein foams and reduced collapse (Behera et al ., ; Raikos et al ., ; Kramman, ).…”

“…The salt reduces the electrostatic repulsion between the surfactant heads groups in the aqueous dispersion, so more surfactant molecules are adsorbed at the CO 2 -nanoparticle interface. (Behera et al 2014) Consequently it might be concluded that the destabilizing of foam is caused by the more amount of surfactant molecules are adsorbed at the CO 2 -NP interface due to reduce in electrostatic potential which minimizes the foam texture. The surfactant will make the foam bubbles to stick to the proppants, which makes the proppant to be transported uniformly into the fracture.…”
