Mechanism of Foam Film Destruction Induced by Emulsified Oil: A Coarse-Grained Simulation Study

Hydrophobic oil additives have been shown to be a unique class of chemicals in solution, which affect the stability of foam films. While the oil-induced destruction of a foam film has been largely understood, the entry process of the oil droplet to the foam film remains vague in experiments. Here, we perform mesoscale simulations to explore the mechanism of the oil droplet entering the gas/water interface of a foam film composed of sodium...
