This work provides a comprehensive review of experimental methods used to measure rheological properties of interfacial layers stabilized by surfactants, asphaltenes, and proteins that are relevant to systems with large interfacial areas, such as emulsions and foams. Among the shear methods presented, the deep channel viscometer, bicone rheometer, and double-wall ring rheometers are the most utilized. On the other hand, the main dilational rheology techniques discussed are surface waves, capillary pressure, oscillating Langmuir trough, oscillating pendant drop, and oscillating spinning drop. Recent developments—including machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) models, such as artificial neural networks (ANN) and convolutional neural networks (CNN)—to calculate interfacial tension from drop shape analysis in shorter times and with higher precision are critically analyzed. Additionally, configurations involving an Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) cantilever contacting bubble, a microtensiometer platform, rectangular and radial Langmuir troughs, and high-frequency oscillation drop setups are presented. The significance of Gibbs–Marangoni effects and interfacial rheological parameters on the (de)stabilization of emulsions is also discussed. Finally, a critical review of the recent literature on the measurement of interfacial rheology is presented. Full article

The increasing popularity of flow field-based data analysis (FFBDA) techniques has a paradigmatic example in the routines already developed for the rotational oscillating bicone bob interfacial shear rheometer. Such routines use a second order centered finite difference (SOCFD) discretization scheme, in both the vertical and radial coordinates, for the velocity field in the bulk fluid subphase and a first order forward finite difference (FOFFD) scheme in the vertical coordinate for the velocity field at the air/water interface. Such a mixture of schemes causes non-smooth flow fields at the interface that can be tackled by appropriately devising a SOCFD scheme for the vertical coordinate at the interface using a line of “phantom” nodes that merely serve to adequately merge the Navier–Stokes equations and the Boussinesq–Scriven boundary condition at the interface. Here we report on a detailed analysis of the quantitative improvements of such a scheme over the previous one by comparing the structure of the flow fields at and close to the interface, the differences in the interfacial and bulk drag torques on the bicone bob, and the differences in the torque/displacement complex amplitude ratio.

Flow field-based methods are becoming increasingly popular for the analysis of interfacial shear rheology data. Such methods take properly into account the subphase drag by solving the Navier–Stokes equations for the bulk phase flows, together with the Boussinesq–Scriven boundary condition at the fluid–fluid interface and the probe equation of motion. Such methods have been successfully implemented on the double wall-ring (DWR), the magnetic rod (MR), and the bicone interfacial shear rheometers. However, a study of the errors introduced directly by the numerical processing is still lacking. Here, we report on a study of the errors introduced exclusively by the numerical procedure corresponding to the bicone geometry at an air–water interface. In our study, we set an input value of the complex interfacial viscosity, and we numerically obtained the corresponding flow field and the complex amplitude ratio for the probe motion. Then, we used the standard iterative procedure to obtain the calculated complex viscosity value. A detailed comparison of the set and calculated complex viscosity values was made in wide ranges of the three parameters herein used, namely the real and imaginary parts of the complex interfacial viscosity and the frequency. The observed discrepancies yield a detailed landscape of the numerically-introduced errors. Full article
