Estimating the asphaltene critical nanoaggregation concentration region using ultrasonic measurements and Bayesian inference

Abstract Bayesian inference and ultrasonic velocity have been used to estimate the self-association concentration of the asphaltenes in toluene using a changepoint regression model. The estimated values agree with the literature information and indicate that a lower abundance of the longer side-chai...
