Thermocapillary waves formation at the interface of hydrocarbons and graphene-like nanofluids

The paper presents the study of supramolecular structuring forming a transition region at the hydrocarbon – nanofluid interface resulting from synergistic effect by the interaction of multilayer graphene planar nanoparticles and silicon carbide nanoparticles covered with graphene layers (Core-shell). During the film formation on the interphase, filamentous formations were obtained, which resulted from interaction with thermocapillary waves. It was found that the structure of the filamentous formation was influenced by the composition and concentration of nanofluids.
