The present work is trying to explain a discrepancy between experimental observations of the drainage of foam films from aqueous solutions of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and the theoretical DLVO-accomplished Reynolds model. It is shown that, due to overlap of the film adsorption layers, an adsorption component of the disjoining pressure is important for this system. The pre-exponential factor of the adsorption component was obtained by fitting the experimental drainage curves. It corresponds to a slight repulsion, which reduces not only the thinning velocity as observed experimentally but corrects also the film equilibrium thickness.
In this paper we consider the two-loop calculation of the disjoining pressure of a symmetric electrolytic soap film. We show that the disjoining pressure is finite when the loop expansion is resummed using a cumulant expansion and requires no short d
We study macroion adsorption on planar surfaces, through a simple model. The importance of entropy in the interfacial phenomena is stressed. Our results are in qualitative agreement with available computer simulations and experimental results on charge reversal and self-assembling at interfaces.
The effect of oxygen adsorption on the local structure and electronic properties of monolayer graphene grown on SiC(0001) has been studied by means of Low Energy Electron Microscopy (LEEM), microprobe Low Energy Electron Diffraction (muLEED) and micr
In manuscript arXiv:1703.08719 [cond-mat.soft], it was claimed that the well-known deduction of Tolmans law is not rigorous, since Tolmans argument implies that two different definitions of the surface tension, called $gamma$ and $bargamma$ in the ma
We discuss instabilities of fluid films of nanoscale thickness, with a particular focus on films where the destabilising mechanism allows for linear instability, metastability, and absolute stability. Our study is motivated by nematic liquid crystal
