Problematic stabilizing films in petroleum emulsions : shear rheological response of viscoelastic asphaltene films and the effect on drop coalescence

Adsorption of asphaltenes at the water-oil interface contributes to the stability of petroleum emulsions by forming a networked film that can hinder drop-drop coalescence. The interfacial microstructure can either be liquid-like or solid-like, depending on (i) initial bulk concentration of asphalten...
