Emulsion Stabilization Via Silicilic Acid Complexation
Reduced metal adsorption is generally ascribed to the competition between metal-ligand complexation in solution and metal complexation at the surface, or to the direct competition between ligand anions and metal cations for coordination at mineral surface sites (Elzinga et al.
Among their topics are reverse micellar studies, activity coefficients of amino acids in aqueous electrolyte solutions, extracting biomolecules from aqueous solutions by reverse micelles, extracting proteins from aqueous solutions by complexation using surfactants, and reactions in ionic surfactant-based emulsions and microemulsions.
The study of complexation reaction of O & N donor ligands in non-aqueous matrices could be used as an efficient strategy to design the analytical systems such as potentiometric sensor, bulk and supported liquid membrane transport [9,10], optical sensor [11], solid phase and cloud point extraction [12, 13] and biochemistry fields [14].
