Mass transport of SDS and AOT solutions during a rapid surface expansion: Relaxation of surface tension

Methane hydrate formation behaviors in high water-cut oil-in-water systems with hydrate promoters

“…The reason why SDS and l -l present different phenomena of different induction time and hydrate formation kinetics in the emulsion system was that SDS and l -l have different promotion mechanisms on hydrate formation; SDS is a good surfactant, which can promote hydrate formation mainly by reducing gas–liquid interfacial tension; 26 in addition, Lin et al 27 found that SDS showed the best promotion effect at a concentration of 0.06%; excessive concentration had no obvious continuous enhancement effect on hydrate formation kinetics, and this paper also proved that the concentration of 0.05% is a more appropriate concentration for the promotion effect.…”
