Craik (1968) has previously examined the stability of horizontal liquid films when an air stream flows over the liquid surface and when the surface is contaminated by an insoluble surface-active agent. The present theoretical work extends this investigation to examine the role of soluble surface-active agents for cases where the liquid Reynolds number is small. This role is found to be a rather complex one which, under suitable conditions, may be either stabilizing or destabilizing.Related experimental work is described which yields results in qualitative agreement with the theoretical analysis.

Mice rendered hyperlipemic by means of intravenous or subcutaneous injections of triton WR 1339 were found to have an increase in the total amount of cholesterol in their bodies. This observation indicates that the injected surface-active agent affects the metabolism of cholesterol and brings about hyperlipemia by augmenting the synthesis of lipides, or by interfering with their degradation or excretion, or by some combination of these factors. The implications of the findings for the pathogenesis of the hyperlipemia induced by triton are discussed further in the accompanying paper (16).

The nano manganese oxides were prepared with the hydrothermal method by adding surface-active agent. The influence of the type and addition amount of surface-active agent on the preparation of nano manganese oxides was studied. The products were characterized with XRD. Experimental results show that MnOOH is obtained at 180°C with the addition of N,N,N-trimethyl-1-dodecanaminium bromide, and Mn3O4is obtained at 180 °C with OP Emulsifier or Tween-80 added. Different addition amount of surface-active agent would have diverse effects on the purity of products.

In order to reduce dust produced during the blasting, effective measures according to smoke components and properties are required to be taken. The experiment adopted a number of base materials and surface-active agents to reduce the dust in smoke. Besides, corresponding additives were adopted to reduce poisonous and harmful gases during the blasting. Experiments focused on wettability and surface tension, using contrast experiment to determine optimal base material and surface-active agent, and also studied the influence of additives on their performance. The experimental results suggested that: sodium chloride was the optimal base material, sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate was the optimal surface-active agent, and copper sulphate and ammonium chloride as additives had almost no influence on performance of surface-active agent and base material. Therefore, adding this dustfall agent to the water bag during the blasting can effectively reduce the concentration of smoke.

The amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) containing amino methacrylate copolymer and surface-active agents were prepared to improve the nifedipine (NDP) dissolution. The different types of surface-active agent i.e., polysorbates 80, sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) 400 were used. In order to evaluate the ASDs formulation,powder X-ray diffractometry and thermal analysis to characterize NDP crystallinity in ASDs and the dissolution study of NDP have been performed to compare the dissolution profiles. The ASDs were kept for 6 months to investigate the stability. In the X-ray diffraction pattern, no peak was observed in all samples of ASDs. No peak was found in sample of all ASDs from the thermograms. These results suggest that the drug may be molecularly dispersed in matrix of amino methacrylate copolymer. The drug dissolution at 120 min, from ASDs without surface-active agent and NDP powder were 58.31% and 17.95%, respectively. The dissolved NDP from ASDs composed of SLS, polysorbate 80 and PEG400 were 96.25%, 88.86% and 75.32%, respectively. These results may occur due to the reduction of surface tension, the addition of the low amount of high efficiency of surface-active agent e.g., SLS (compared with PEG400 and polysorbate 80) provided the higher NDP dissolution. The content analysis of NDP in selected ASDs was studied at the end of 3 and 6 months, the NDP content remained unchanged after storage.
