Nanoparticles-surfactant foam and crude oil interaction in porous media

Nanoparticles and surfactant stabilized foams have versatile applications in enhanced oil recovery process. The synergistic advantages of surface tension reduction by surfactant and nanoparticles adsorption at the foam lamellae can be exploited for producing foam with high foamability and longtime s...
