Abstract
$Al_2O_3$ particles, which are in situ hydrophobized upon adsorption of short-chain amphiphilic molecules, on addition of different amounts of unmodified $SiO_2$, can be used as wet foam stabilizers. We tailored the microstructure of particle stabilized wet foams, average bubble size, and bubble size distribution by changing the composition of the initial colloidal suspension. The effects in terms of the combined effects of the contact angle, surface tension, and $SiO_2$ content of the initial suspensions, are directly affected by the amphiphile concentration. Wet foams featuring average bubble sizes between 30 and $300{\mu}m$ and air contents between 50-90% and porosity between 60-80% were obtained by adjusting the propyl gallate concentration as well as amount of additive ($SiO_2$) in the initial suspension.
