title = "Enhancing the Foam Stability of Aqueous Solution with High Ethanol Concentration via Co-addition of Surfactant, Long-chain Alcohol, and Inorganic Electrolyte",
abstract = "The foam stability of an aqueous solution containing a high concentration of ethanol (60 vol.%) was assessed under the combined addition of an anionic surfactant, a long-chain alcohol, and an inorganic electrolyte. The addition of the electrolyte resulted in a decreased surface tension and an increased surface viscosity, leading to an enhanced foam stability. This study proposes a new strategy for formulating foam-type disinfectants with increased stability containing high concentrations of ethanol.",
