When surfactants adsorb at liquid surfaces, they not only decrease the surface tension, they
also confer rheological properties to the surfaces. The most common rheological parameters …

Foams are dispersions of gas bubbles in liquids or solid matrices [1]. They occur widely in
nature and are used in important industrial processes and commercial applications [2, 3] …

Aqueous foams are suspensions of bubbles inside aqueous phases. Their multiphasic
composition leads to a complex rheological behavior that is useful in numerous applications …

Recent advances in the coalescence in liquid foams are reviewed, with a special focus on
the multiscale structure of foams. Studies concerning the stability of isolated foam films, on …

Steady state foams made of a pH sensitive surfactant, nonaoxyethylene oleylether
carboxylic acid, with ion complexing properties was studied using small angle neutron …

Soft matter is a field of condensed matter physics that began to develop in France in the
1970s under the impulse of Pierre-Gilles de Gennes. I had the chance to participate in this …

Molecular dynamics simulations were carried out to investigate the influence of cations (Ca
2+/Mg 2+) on the stability of the foam system stabilized by sodium dodecyl polyoxyethylene …

Aluminium alloy foams are created by injecting gas containing different levels of oxygen
(from≪ 1 ppm to 21%) into melts stabilised with SiC or TiB 2 particles. Individual liquid …

The behavior of thin liquid films is known to be strongly affected by the presence of
surfactants at the interfaces. The detailed mechanism by which the latter enhance film …

Marginal regeneration is the process at the origin of the thinner patches produced at the
bottom of vertical soap films and slowly rising to the top. It controls the film drainage, and …
