The effect of an divalent electrolyte Ca2+ on the flocculation of two different concentrations of anionic surfactant Sodium Dodecylbenzenesulfonate (SDBS) with Al3+ has been investigated at different molar ratios Al3+ to SDBS at 298.15 K. The results showed that the flocculation characteristics of 0.01 mol•L-1 SDBS (above the critical micelle concentration CMC) and 0.001 mol•L-1 SDBS (below the CMC) were obviously different with an increase of dosages of Al3+. The z-average size of flocculate of 0.01 mol•L-1 SDBS with Al3+ decreased particularly with the pre-addition of Ca2+，It suggested the formation of the complexion Ca(SDBS)2. At optimization flocculation areas at 298.15K, pH values were all around 3.5 in the flocculation systems SDBS/Al3+ and Ca2+/SDBS/Al3+ whether the SDBS concentration above or below the CMC. The pre-addition of Ca2+ slightly affected other flocculation parameters of SDBS/Al3+ systems such as zeta potential, surface tension, conductivity and pH.

The ampholytic surfactant lauramidopropyl betaine (LAB) has excellent properties and very low irritation. It has good compatibility and can be used together with cationic, anionic and nonionic surfactants. In this paper, new surfactants were synthesized by using LAB as the main component and the molar ratios of LAB to formaldehyde were 1:1, 1:2, 1:3 and 1:4, respectively. The new functional group hydroxymethyl was introduced into the LAB, and the effect of hydroxymethyl on the properties of raw materials was discussed. And the surface properties were studied, including surface tension, critical micelle concentration and foaming ability. Finally, it can be concluded that the introduction of methylol groups improves the performance of the prepared new surfactants in certain properties.

Dispersion and stability of Cu nano-suspensions with dispersant is the important base for the study of rheology and heat transfer enhancement of the suspensions. This paper presented a procedure for preparing a nanofluid which was a suspension consisting of nanophase powders and a base liquids. By means of the procedure, Cu-H2O nanofluids with and without dispersant were prepared, whose sedimentation photographs were given to illustrate the stability and evenness of suspension with dispersant. Dispersion and stability of Cu nanoparticles in water were studied under different pH values and the concentration of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (SDBS) dispersant by the method of zeta potential, absorbency and sedimentation photographs. The results show that zeta potential has very corresponding relation with absorbency, and the higher absolute value of zeta potential and absorbency are, the better dispersion and stability in system is. The absolute value of zeta potential and absorbency are higher at pH 9.5. SDBS can significantly increase the absolute value of the zeta potential of the particle surfaces by electrostatic repulsions, which leads to the enhancement of the stability of the Cu suspensions. The optimizing concentration for SDBS in the 0.1% copper nano-suspensions is 0.07%, which has the best disperse results.

In this paper, by measurement of zeta potential and particle size the surface modification of Cu nanoparticles in water was investigated at different pH values and different concentration of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (SDBS) dispersant. The results show that the absolute value of zeta potential has very corresponding relation with particle size, and that the higher the absolute value of zeta potential and the smaller of the particle size are, the better dispersion and stability of copper nano-suspensions system is. It is also found that SDBS can significantly affect the value of zeta potential and particle size by electrostatic repulsions, which lead to the enhancement of the stability of the Cu suspensions, and the optimizing concentration for SDBS in 0.1% copper nano-suspensions is 0.07%, which have the best disperse results.

This study aims to investigate the effects of different non-ionic surfactants on physicochemical properties of ART niosomes. ART is a natural compound that is used as an antimalarial and chemotherapy agent in medicine. ART has low bioavailability, stability and solubility. In order to solve these problems and enhancing the efficiency of the drug, nanotechnology was used. In the present study, several niosomal formulations of ART prepared using different molar ratios of Span 60 : Tween 60 : PEG-600: ART in PBS. These three formulations were FI (1:1:0.5:0.5), FII (2:1:0.5:0.5) and FIII (1:2:0.5:0.5), respectively. The encapsulation efficiency was measured by HPLC and the drug release was evaluated by dialysis method. The cytotoxicity test was determined by MTT assay. The size, zeta potential and polydispersity index of the vesicles was measured by Zeta Sizer. Stability study was performed within two months. The MTT assay results showed that cytotoxicity effect of these formulations on MCF-7 cell line is better than C6 cell line and the FIII had the best results for both of them. The entrapment efficiencies of the formulations I, II and III were obtained 82.2±1.88%, 75.5±0.92% and 95.5±1.23%, respectively. The results of size, zeta potential and polydispersity index indicated that the size of the vesicles is below 200 nm, their surface charge is about -35 mV and they were monodisperse. Stability and release study indicated that the formulation III has the best stability and release pattern. Therefore, the use of PEGylated niosomal ART can effectively improve its therapeutic index, stability and solubility.

Effects of extraction-stripping loops of organic phase on organic chemical entrainment in the aqueous raffinate in copper solvent extraction were studied in this paper. Results demonstrated that the total amount of organic chemicals lost in the aqueous raffinate decreased with the increase of times of extraction-stripping loops but reached largest at third loop. Entrainment was the dominate way of organic chemicals losing in the aqueous raffinate at early stage of the loops. The formation of entrainment and its stabilization mechanism was also studied. The average size of entrained droplet trended to increase with extraction-stripping loops increasing. Meanwhile, the absolute value of zeta potential trended to decrease. The surface tension of the aqueous raffinate increased after reaching the minimum value 41.3 mN/m at the 3rd loop. It showed that the formation of entrained droplets and its stability were mainly affected by the surface tension of aqueous raffinate.

As anionic surfactant, a commercial salt of lauryl sodium sulfate was used. The effects of different amounts of dispersant on the measurement of particle size distribution between two titanium dioxide powders (anatase and rutile) in aqueous media were discussed. Diluted aqueous suspensions were characterized in terms of particle size distribution and zeta potential. The results demonstrate that the measurement of particle size distribution strongly depends on the amounts of dispersant. The amounts of dispersant have a significant effect on the behavior of the rutile-TiO2 particles. The particle size first decreases significantly with an increase in the amounts of dispersant and then lesser increases with a further increase in the amounts of dispersant. The tendency show significant differences between two particles.

In this paper, the domestic old book paper(DOBP) was subjected to deinking process. Surface and colloid characterisitics of DOBP deinking pulp(DIP) system was investigated. The relation between surface and colloid characterisitic changes and efficiency of deinking (brightness and residual ink particles content) was studied. Technical conditions that affect the deinking pulp’s colloid chemical behavior were also analyzed here.The results showed that colloid-chemical behavior of DOBP deinking system could be changed during the deinking process. The colloid-chemical behavior, such as Zeta potential and surface tention, had a certain corresponding relation with deinking efficiency of DOBP deinking system. When Zeta potential of the deinking system was more great, and surface tension was more low in a certain range(Zeta potential was -17.0~ -16.0mV and surface tension was 59.0~61.0mN/m), brightness and ink removal efficiency of DOBP will be improved.
