DEFFED Design of froths and foams with entailed durability

Coordinator: SOFIA UNIVERSITY ST KLIMENT OHRIDSKI (BG)

This proposal aims at creating a methodology for the design of froths and foams of pre-conditioned durability. Such a methodology is greatly needed nowadays, because of the numerous applications of the froths and foams. The life-time of single foam films and the durability of froths/foams will be investigated under matching conditions. The effects of the bubble speed and bubble sizes on the durability of froths/foams will be studied for a wide range of Gibbs elasticity values. Furthermore, the durability of foam films and froths/foams containing nano– and micro-hydrophilic and/or hydrophobic …

About Seventh Framework Programme (2007–2013)

The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) ran from 2007 to 2013 and was the EU's main research-funding instrument of that period. It mobilised roughly €50 billion across cooperation projects, ERC frontier grants, Marie Curie fellowships, capacity-building actions and Euratom research. FP7 closed to new calls in 2013 but its projects continued for years after under their original grant agreements.

EU contribution: €75k awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 3 years from 2009-01-01 to 2011-12-31.
