There is no work showing how to measure bubble film composition and thickness by a straightforward manner. In this work, a novel approach, a custom-designed bubble cell associated with layer interferometry(in the UV-vis region) and FT-IR spectroscopy was used to investigate the effect of solid particle type(hydrophilic vs hydrophobic), concentration and bubble diameter on stability of a bubble blown in air. Stability was quantified by measuring bubble lifetime and hydrated film thickness. Kerosene with silicone oil as a foaming agent was used to evaluate the impact of bubble diameter(test series I). Frother solutions(MIBC, Dowfroth 250, Hexanol and F-150) were used for the solid type concentration experiments(test series II). In the first series of experiments, it was determined that as the diameter of a bubble increased from 10 to 25 mm, so did the hydrated film thickness from 350 to 1000 nm. In the second series, as the silica concentration increased(0 to 10%), an increase in bubble lifetime and hydrated film thickness was resulted(130%-250%). An impact of solid hydrophobicity was found but to a lesser degree than expected. It is possible that the small particle size(<0.1 m) of silica was responsible for this behavior. The findings are used to interpret the effect of solids in flotation froth.展开更多
