Abstract

Abstract:

Oil-water miscible foam is a special kind of foam system, and the study of its stabilization mechanism has become more and more important due to its wide application in the fields of chemical industry, food, and pharmaceuticals. Based on the latest research progress, the factors affecting the stability of oil-water miscible foams have been reviewed, including surface active substances, oil phase, etc., and the mechanisms of their effects on the foaming performance and stability of oil-water miscible foams have also been summarized. The effects of the type and content of oils on the stabilization of oil-water miscible foams are focused on. Finally, the effects of temperature, degree of mineralization and different combinations of surfactants/particles/oils on the stabilization of oil-water miscible foams are introduced. Some future research directions and the development of more effective foam stabilization methods using novel materials and nanoparticle technologies are also proposed, which are of great significance for deeper understanding of the stabilization mechanisms of oil-water miscible foams, the optimization of foam properties, the development of new applications, and the solutions to the problems in related fields.

Key words: oil-water miscible foam, surface active substance, oil phase, temperature, degree of mineralization, stabilization
