Syneresis of sodium oleate gels in organic solvents

Part I. Effect of area of gel-surface on the syneresis of sodium oleate gels in pinene

Proceedings of the Indian Academy of Sciences - Section A Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

The effect of the area of gel surface exposed on the syneresis of sodium oleate gels in pinene has been determined. It is observed that syneresis is directly proportional to the specific surface per unit volume of the gel, provided the thickness of the gel is small, and nearly constant. When greater thicknesses of the gel are considered syneresis is slightly higher than the value calculated on the basis of the specific surface.
