Two-dimensional spreading properties and sealing characteristics of fluorocarbon surfactants on several typical hydrocarbon fuels

Abstract A new method for studying the two-dimensional spreading properties and sealing characteristics of surfactant solution on oil surface was provided. The actual spreading situation of the C4-Br/oil systems in axisymmetric geometry was observed directly using HD camera for the first time and th...
