Av. Kochergin et al., PASSIVATION OF PULSING WATER DROPLETS IN FOG BY VAPORS OF SURFACTANT, Colloid journal of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 56(4), 1994, pp. 445-449
The passivation of the droplets of fog by vapors of cetyl alcohol is e
xamined with account for temperature pulsation in the fog. Calculation
s of the kinetics of covering a monolayer by the molecules of cetyl al
cohol on the surface of water droplets with periodically varying dimen
sions are presented. The consequences of passivation of the pulsing dr
oplets of fog are discussed.
