Thesis Title : Evaluation of Nonideality (GEX/RT) in Ionic Mixtures
- Investigated characterization of commercial anionic, extended anionic surfactants, nonionic and amphoteric surfactants to interpret optimal salinity at varied test conditions and verify the results with modified HLD equation .
- Investigated rheological characterizations of anionic surfactants at varied test conditions to goalseek the mechanism behind the viscoelastic/shear thickening phenomena.
- Operated and interfaced with instruments viz. IFT, Cone/Plate Rheometer.
- Applied Lean Six Sigma methodologies, specifically utilizing Design of Expe
