Surface tension of colloidal solutions, and the action of light on soap solutions


Play all audios:

ABSTRACT SOME time ago1 a discussion arose between Prof. Mahajan and myself about the interpretation of a phenomenon which I described for the first time in 1922, namely, the slow decrease


in the surface tension of colloid solutions in general, as a consequence of the adsorption in the surface layer. I showed that this decrease could be followed step by step by means of a


proper instrument. SIMILAR CONTENT BEING VIEWED BY OTHERS SURFACE TENSION OF NANOPARTICLE DISPERSIONS UNRAVELLED BY SIZE-DEPENDENT NON-OCCUPIED SITES FREE ENERGY VERSUS ADSORPTION KINETICS
