Both negatively charged SiO 2 nanoparticle and positively charged AlOOH nanoparticle have been widely used in various fields, including enhanced oil recovery (EOR). In this study, the mixed binary AlOOH/SiO 2 nanoparticle (MBN) systems are constructed and firstly employed in EOR. The measurements of zeta potential and Z-average diameter indicate that the stable MBN aqueous dispersion could be obtained by controlling AlOOH/SiO 2 mass ratios, which is quantificationally confirmed via the e-DLVO theory. Then the ternary TX-100-AlOOH-SiO 2 (TX-A-S) system exhibits the great ability to stabilize the emulsion at the much low nanoparticle concentration (0.15 wt% in total). The emulsion stability is further evaluated in the harsh conditions (high shear, temperature and electrolyte concentration). Moreover, core flooding and microscopic visualization experiments reflect the TX-A-S stabilized emulsion can dramatically enhance tertiary oil recovery (~23% of initial oil in place), which should be attributed to the high improvement of both displacement and sweep efficiency.

A nonaqueous ionic liquid (IL) microemulsion containing ethylammonium nitrate (EAN), the surfactant TX-100, and cyclohexane was prepared at room temperature, and phase behavior of this ternary system was investigated at 25 ± 0.1 °C. Electric conductivity measurements were performed to identify the microregions of the nonaqueous IL microemulsion. Based on percolation theory, an EAN-in-cyclohexane (IL/O), a bicontinuous, and a cyclohexane-in-EAN (O/IL) microregion were successfully identified using cyclohexane as the titration phase. Dynamic light scattering measurements were used to study the formation of the IL pools. UV–vis spectroscopy using methyl orange as probe material was employed to investigate the micropolarity of the system. The results indicate that the micropolarity of the IL/O microemulsion increases with the EAN content after the IL pools are formed. With this work, we expect to improve the basic understanding of nonaqueous microemulsions.

Nanofluids have increasingly drawn interest in recent years with their various applications in a number of fields. The method for the preparation of stable nanofluids is a key concern for extending the application of nanofluids. This study focuses on the effect of pH, dosage of surfactant (TX-100), and nanofluid concentration on the stability of a silica nanofluid. Particle size and zeta potential are two important factors to consider in evaluating the stability of the silica nanofluid. Results indicate that the stability of the silica nanofluid highly depends on pH, dosage of surfactant (TX-100), and nanofluid concentration. On the basis of these experiments, the best conditions for the preparation of a silica nanofluid are 0.1 wt. % for the concentration of silica nanoparticles and TX-100 and 10 for pH. A transparent and stable silica nanofluid can thus be obtained.

This paper is focused on the selection of cosolvents in the remediation of contaminated soils. The aim of this study was to investigate the combined effects of Triton X-100 (TX-100) and different cosolvents on the solubilization behavior of 4,4′-dibromodiphenyl ether (BDE-15) and the washing of BDE-15 from a contaminated soil. 1 H NMR spectroscopies were used to elucidate the interactions among TX-100, cosolvents, and BDE-15 in aqueous micellar solution. Results showed that the solubility of BDE-15 was enhanced by the observed synergism among TX-100, BDE-15, and cosolvents, and the TX-100/dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) system exhibited the best performance in the solubilization of BDE-15. Similar synergism was further evidenced in the washing of BDE-15 from a contaminated soil. With 10 % ( v / v ) DMSO and 6.4 mM TX-100 solution added, considerable synergistic effect was achieved in TX-100/DMSO system, leading to the highest removal efficiency (92.9 %) of BDE-15 from the soil, relative to that of 67.3 % with TX-100 alone at the same concentration.

Surfactants are known to enhance the degradation of halogenated organics by nanoscale zerovalent iron (n-ZVI) or n-ZVI-based bimetallic particles, but the mechanism of the promotion is not well understood. In this study, we used nanoscale Ag/Fe particles (n-Ag/Fe) to degrade 2,2′,4,4′-tetrabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-47) in different surfactant solutions. The results show that the nonionic surfactant TX-100 had the best promoting effect, which might be attributed to the decrease in particle agglomeration and improvement of mass transfer efficiency after the adsorption of TX-100 on n-Ag/Fe. The distribution analysis of BDE-47 in solid and liquid phases indicates that when the concentration of TX-100 in aqueous solution was above critical micelle concentration, BDE-47 started to dissolve in the liquid phase. Thus, TX-100 micelles can enhance the mass transfer efficiency of BDE-47. However, a too high concentration of TX-100 (above 1.0 mM) would influence the promotion effect of BDE-47 degration, which might be attributed to the excessive and thicker micelles of TX-100 hindering the contact between BDE-47 and n-Ag/Fe. We also studied the degradation pathway of BDE-47 and its products, and found that surfactants did not change the degradation pathway of BDE-47.

Nano-silica particles were prepared using chlorosilane residual liquid as raw materials in an inverse microemulsion system formed by three different surfactants (TX-100, CTAB, SDS) with n -hexanol, cyclohexane, and ammonia. The phase behavior of inverse microemulsions and the preparation of nano-silica were investigated. The results showed that the system composed of non-ionic surfactant TX-100 had a larger inverse microemulsion region than other two system and was more suitable for the preparation of nano-silica. The prepared nano-silica had uniform sphericity and good dispersibility, the average particle diameter of 31 nm, and the variance of 1 nm. XRD, FT-IR, N 2 adsorption/desorption experiments and TG-DSC analysis were used to characterize the prepared nano-silica. The results showed that the prepared nano-silica was amorphous mesoporous silica with a BET specific surface area of 472.5 m 2 /g. They have a good thermal stability, and the phase structure and main chemical functional groups of nano-silica would not change after calcination at 600 °C, but the nano-silica would undergo a phase change at 1135 °C, which changed from amorphous to crystalline. The new technology not only broadened the source of preparation of nano-silica materials, but also provided new ideas for the treatment of chlorosilane residual liquid and the sustainable development of polysilicon industry.

Triton X-100 (TX-100) is a commonly used surfactant in the manufacture of biosensors. The factors limiting the use of TX-100 in biosensors are environmental concerns. In this study, the binary system of sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS) and fatty alcohol-polyoxyethlene ether (AEO) was investigated from the physicochemical principle of surfactant interaction and its application in biosensors. The results demonstrated that a mixture of SDBS and AEO at an appropriate molar ratio had a comparable activity to TX-100 in terms of surface activity, micelle formation, dynamic adsorption, foaming, emulsifying, and cell permeability. Theory and experimentation support the idea that SDBS-AEO might take the place of TX-100 in the manufacturing of biosensors. This study contributes to the development of alternatives to TX-100 and provides a new perspective for an in-depth study of the interaction mechanism of additives in biosensor design.
