    Abstract Background: The biocompatible amphiphilic silk fibroin, extracted from domesticated silkworms, can adsorb at the oil-water interface and form elastic interfacial layers. In this study, three surfactants (cationic cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, the nonionic polyoxyethylene sorbitan monolaurate, and the anionic sodium dodecyl sulfate) were selected to investigate, through interfacial shear rheology, the influences of surfactants on the interfacial viscoelasticity and stability of silk fibroin at the interfaces between water and two different oils.
    Results: The presence of surfactant prolongs the equilibration time and enhances the interfacial elastic modulus and toughness of the interfacial silk fibroin layers, especially at the nonpolar dodecane-water interface. However, when the surfactant exceeds a critical concentration, the shear modulus and stability of interfacial silk fibroin layers begin to decrease due to the competitive adsorption of surfactant molecules and the weakening of the protein network. Owing to electrostatic interactions, the ionic surfactants cetyltrimethylammonium bromide and sodium dodecyl sulfate can form more hydrophobic complexes with silk fibroin, which results in higher shear moduli than for silk fibroin and silk fibroin-polyoxyethylene sorbitan monolaurate mixture.
    Conclusion: Both the surfactant type and oil polarity play important roles in the adsorption, shear viscoelasticity, and stability of silk fibroin at the oil-water interface. Enhanced interactions between a silk fibroin-surfactant mixture and the oil phase delay the equilibration of the adsorption layers but strengthen the stability of interfacial layers. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

    Abstract Surfactants play essential roles in many commonplace applications and industrial processes. Although significant progress has been made over the past decades with regard to model-based predictions of the behavior of surfactants, important challenges have remained. Notably, the characteristic time scales of surfactant exchange among micelles, interfaces, and the bulk solution typically exceed the time scales currently accessible with atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Here, we circumvent this problem by introducing a framework that combines the general thermodynamic principles of self-assembly and interfacial adsorption with atomistic MD simulations. This approach provides a full thermodynamic description based on equal chemical potentials and connects the surfactant bulk concentration, the experimental control parameter, with the surfactant surface density, the suitable control parameter in MD simulations. Self-consistency is demonstrated for the nonionic surfactant C

    Abstract Pickering foams are available in many applications and have been continually gaining interest in the last two decades. Pickering foams are multifaceted, and their characteristics are highly dependent on many factors, such as particle size, charge, hydrophobicity and concentration as well as the charge and concentration of surfactants and salts available in the system. A literature review of these individual studies at first might seem confusing and somewhat contradictory, particularly in multi-component systems with particles and surfactants with different charges in the presence of salts. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of particle-stabilized foams, also known as Pickering foams and froths. Underlying mechanisms of foam stabilization by particles with different morphology, surface chemistry, size and type are reviewed and clarified. This paper also outlines the role of salts and different factors such as pH, temperature and gas type on Pickering foams. Further, we highlight recent developments in Pickering foams in different applications such as food, mining, oil and gas, and wastewater treatment industries, where Pickering foams are abundant. We conclude this overview by presenting important research avenues based on the gaps identified here. The focus of this review is limited to Pickering foams of surfactants with added salts and does not include studies on polymers, proteins, or other macromolecules.

    Abstract The self-assembly of nanoparticles (NPs) at interfaces is currently a topic of increasing interest due to numerous applications in food technology, pharmaceuticals, cosmetology, and oil recovery. It is possible to create tunable interfacial structures with desired characteristics using tailored nanoparticles that can be precisely controlled with respect to shape, size, and surface chemistry. To address these functionalities, it is essential to develop techniques to study the properties of the underlying structure. In this work, we propose an experimental approach utilizing the standard deviation of drop profiles calculated by the Laplace equation from experimental drop profiles (STD), as an alternative to the Langmuir trough or precise microscopic methods, to detect the initiation of closely packed conditions and the collapse of the adsorbed layers of CTAB-nanosilica complexes. The experiments consist of dynamic surface/interfacial tension measurements using drop profile analysis tensiometry (PAT) and large-amplitude drop surface area compression/expansion cycles. The results demonstrate significant changes in STD values at the onset of the closely packed state of nanoparticle-surfactant complexes and the monolayer collapse. The STD trend was explained in detail and shown to be a powerful tool for analyzing the adsorption and interfacial structuring of nanoparticles. Different collapse mechanisms were reported for NP monolayers at the liquid/liquid and air/liquid interfaces. We show that the interfacial tension (IFT) is solely dependent on the extent of interfacial coverage by nanoparticles, while the surfactants regulate only the hydrophobicity of the self-assembled complexes. Also, the irreversible adsorption of nanoparticles and the increasing number of adsorbed complexes after the collapse were observed by performing consecutive drop surface compression/expansion cycles. In addition to a qualitative characterization of adsorption layers, the potential of a quantitative calculation of the parameter STD such as the number of adsorbed nanoparticles at the interface and the distance between them at different states of the interfacial layer was discussed.
