Probing Asphaltenes Aggregation with Fluorescence Techniques

Asphaltenes correspond to the fraction of oil that is insoluble in heptane but is soluble in toluene. The aggregates of asphaltene are of interest because they cause serious problems in the production of oil. Asphaltenes contain fluorescent moieties, and as such they can be studied by fluorescenc...
