Edgar J. Acosta is a Professor at the Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering, University of Toronto. His research focuses on surfactant-based systems for diverse applications including formulation engineering, drug delivery, environmental remediation, and biomedical solutions.
- B.Sc. from Universidad del Zulia (Venezuela)
- M.A.Sc. and Ph.D. from the University of Oklahoma
Research Interests: Specializing in the thermodynamics and formulation of surfactant-oil-water systems, Acosta investigates:
- Development of the net-average curvature model as an expert system for surfactant formulation properties
- Low surface tension films for hydrophobic coatings and dewatering agents
- Lecithin-based microemulsions as drug delivery vehicles
- Lung surfactant replacement therapy with biocompatible polymers
Publication Trends: Recent work emphasizes surfactant applications in pharmaceuticals (2014), environmental engineering (2014), and biomedical systems (2010-2014), with a focus on predictive modeling and green formulation strategies.
