Abstract
The effect of HCl on life time of liquid lamellae created between two colliding bubbles in aqueous solutions ofn-fatty acids were studied. The results show, that the addition of HCl has a pronounced influence on life time of the lamellae. At low fatty acid concentration the lifetime of the lamellae in the acidified solution is higher than in the nonacidified solution, but at higher fatty acid concentration the effect reverses. The analysis of these experimental results show that the characteristic influence of HCl on lamellae lifetime can be explained by the formation of distinct association states of the fatty acids in the liquid phase at different concentration ranges. The results are discussed with respect to bubble coalescence in gas-liquid contactors.
