The materials used were poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), glass, and anatase. The interaction of the bubbles, once brought into contact, was monitored using high-speed video recording. Visual inspection indicated that denser particles were more easily displaced during the contact of the bubbles and therefore the PMMA particles provided a particle barrier more resistant to coalescence. The coalescence events yielded information on the surface properties of the bubble and the detachment of particles. The attached particles commonly dampen the oscillation of the coalesced bubbles through viscous drag and change in the surface properties (e.g., area-exclusion principle). The dampening of the oscillation generally leads to a reduced mass of particles detaching from the bubble surface. It was found that the different materials investigated did not offer clear evidence of the effect of particle detachment on the bubble surface properties in the present systems. On the other hand, the detachment of different particle materials seemed to be consistent with one another when comparing the attachment and detachment forces exerted on the particles based on their density, size, and hydrophobicity. It was concluded that particles of lower density are more effective in stabilizing interfaces, and thus particle density is an important parameter in the selection of materials for the handling of dispersions.]]> Wed 11 Apr 2018 13:00:50 AEST ]]> Bubble and froth stabilizing agents in froth flotation https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30745 Wed 10 Nov 2021 15:13:20 AEDT ]]> Influence of frothers on the detachment of galena particles from bubbles https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:17279 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:01:27 AEDT ]]> Liquid marble and water droplet interactions and stability https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:27352 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:39:37 AEDT ]]> The roles of particles in multiphase processes: particles on bubble surfaces https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:26399 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:28:00 AEDT ]]> Effect of alcohol frothing agents on the coalescence of bubbles coated with hydrophobized silica particles https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:28104 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:24:56 AEDT ]]> Influence of additives on gas holdup and bubble size https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:24564 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:11:32 AEDT ]]> The use of esterification to create hydrophobic quartz particles for flotation https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:24568 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:11:29 AEDT ]]> The role of bubble interfacial properties in the detachment of particles during bubble coalescence https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:29302 Mon 21 Aug 2017 11:04:02 AEST ]]> High speed video observations of alumina-coated air bubble coalescence https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:18676 Mon 20 Jul 2015 17:34:33 AEST ]]>
