Interfacial Dilational Rheology of Molecular Films in DC Electric Fields

We present a novel technique to measure the interfacial dilational rheology of a molecular film adsorbed at a water-oil interface in a direct-current (dc) electric field. A film of a highly polar subfraction of asphaltenes was allowed to adsorb at a water drop interface, surrounded by an organic pha...

Zusammenfassung:We present a novel technique to measure the interfacial dilational rheology of a molecular film adsorbed at a water-oil interface in a direct-current (dc) electric field. A film of a highly polar subfraction of asphaltenes was allowed to adsorb at a water drop interface, surrounded by an organic phase and subjected to a dc electric field. The measurements involved calculations of the dynamic interfacial tension (IFT), while the drop was sinusoidally oscillated, using our in-house axisymmetric drop shape analysis (ADSA) algorithm adapted for electric fields. The amplitude of the IFT waveform over equilibrium IFT and the phase difference from the applied area oscillations were used in the estimation of surface moduli. The asphaltene films were found to become more elastic on increasing bulk concentrations and electric field strengths. However, the effect was not monotonous and observed to be governed by combinations of these parameters. The Lucassen-van den Tempel (LVDT) model was used to further elucidate the experimentally obtained interfacial dilational moduli
