Area of Science:

  • Colloid and Surface Science
  • Physical Chemistry
  • Nanotechnology

Background:

  • The existence of bulk nanobubbles is debated due to experimental limitations and assumptions about bubble equilibrium.
  • Previous research has faced skepticism regarding the stability and properties of nanobubbles.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a theoretical model for the stability of bulk nanobubbles.
  • To explain the experimentally observed properties of bulk nanobubbles that have been disputed.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a model for nanobubble stability based on zeta potential measurements.
  • Incorporated the observation of zeta potential divergence in spherical bubbles below 10 μm.

Main Results:

  • The model successfully predicts three key properties of bulk nanobubbles: stabilization at ~100 nm radius, a lower bound radius below 1 μm, and an increase in radius with ionic concentration.
  • The model reconciles theoretical predictions with persistent experimental observations.

Conclusions:

  • The developed model provides a theoretical basis for the existence and stability of bulk nanobubbles.
  • The findings suggest that nanobubble properties are linked to interfacial phenomena and ionic strength.
