Surfactants stop microbubbles popping for a year Tiny bubbles of air can last for over a year if they are covered in elastic shields of surfactant, US scientists have found. A long-lasting dispersion of bubbles this small, they suggest, might improve the properties of foams, paints, contrast agents. |
