Interfacial Convection Driven by Surfactant Compounds at Liquid Interfaces: Characterization by a Solutal Marangoni Number

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSB,volume 174))

Abstract

We have studied the possibility for Marangoni effects to occur at an oil water interface containing a long chain surfactant compound which is known to damp interfacial convection. This was realized by choosing appropriately the organic solvent. In the range where the instability occurs a solutal Marangoni number recently determined on the basis of an experimental model has been evaluated. Its value is compared to those calculated for oil-water interfaces containing compounds which are known to induce interfacial convection (acetone, acetic acid).
