Thermal Stability of Gel Foams Stabilized by Xanthan Gum, Silica Nanoparticles and Surfactants

The foams stabilized by nanoparticles (NPs), water-soluble polymers, and surfactants have potential application prospects in the development of new, environmentally friendly firefighting foams. In the present study, a gel foam containing a water-soluble polymer (xanthan gum, XG), hydrophilic silica...
