A Study of Interactions of Asphaltenes in Organic Solvents Using Surface Forces Apparatus

A Surface Forces Apparatus (SFA) was used in this study to investigate the fundamental surface forces in oil sand processing research. Asphaltene coated surfaces were chosen as the research topic due to the critical role of asphaltenes in oil sands processing, from bitumen extraction, froth treatmen...
