Bearing a hydrophilic part and a hydrophobic part, surfactants can adsorb onto interfaces and lower the interfacial tension (γ), thereby enhancing the interfacial...

The purpose of this work is to lure a system away from its equilibrium state and trap it into other non-equilibrium states. The systems investigated are...

This thesis aims to understand the effect of the dynamics of copolymer micelles on their rheological properties. Indeed amphiphilic copolymers can self-assemble in...

Soils contaminated by hydrophobic organic pollutants like polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a common concern since they are extremely difficult to remove and...
