Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The objectives of this work were to develop a simple procedure to determine the hydrophilic/lipophilic nature of surfactants based on microemulsion phase behavior and to characterize mixed surfactant systems. The concept of hydrophilic-lipophilic difference (HLD) and the net-average curvature (NAC) were used to develop a model to characterize systems containing anionic-anionic and anionic-nonionic surfactant mixtures. Salinity and temperature scans were carried out and phase changes were noted. It was found that in anionic-anionic systems the linear mixing rule is applicable, and was used to calculate the intrinsic curvature parameter (Ci), which can be used as an alternative scale to the HLB and packing factor to characterize the behavior of a surfactant in microemulsion systems. For anionic-nonionic systems the linear mixing rule does not apply because of the interactions between anionic and nonionic surfactants which seem to be dominated by the charge shielding effect that nonionic surfactants have on anionic surfactants.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
