Foaming properties and foam stability of reactive dye foam system

To analyze properties of the Reactive Dye foaming system,the foam is generated by mechanical stirring,and blowing ratio and half-life of foam are used to characterise the foam properties;different foaming agents and stabilizers were added in the foaming system to analyze their effects on foam properties; and different concentrations of reactive dyes,inorganic salts,sodium carbonate and urea were added in the foaming system to investigate the influence of concentrations on foam properties and foam stability. The experiment results indicated that when using 2 g / L sodium dodecyl sulfate as foaming agent,dodecanol and guar gum( 3∶ 4) as stabilizers,the foam system was stable; and dyes and additive agents all influenced the foam properties.
