The aim of this research is to study the effect of hydrophilic silica nanoparticles, sizes as CO2 foam stabilizer in the presence of nonionic TX100 surfactant. Two nanosilica sizes, 15 and 70 nm, have been examined thoroughly. Physisorption of TX100 on silica nanoparticles (nanosilica) was character...
