Abstract

The article presents the theoretical aspects of the structure, formation and degradation of foams, as well as the main characteristics of foams that affect their stability. Foams of various compositions and structures attract the attention of scientists and researchers from various fields due to the large surface area and the dynamic nature of its change. Foam plays an important role in a wide variety of industries, from the production of everyday products such as shaving cream and washing powder to complex technological processes. Many properties of foams are a direct consequence of their geometric structure.
