Abstract

Based on surface/interfacial tension isotherms measured for the homologous series of alkyl trimethyl ammonium bromides (CnTAB) using the drop profile analysis tensiometry the adsorption behavior at three different liquid-fluid interfaces is discussed: solution/air, solution/hexane vapor and solution/hexane bulk liquid. The adsorption behavior can be described by different models. In the presence of hexane molecules (as a bulk liquid or as vapor in the air phase) the adsorption of the CnTAB molecules can be best described by a competitive adsorption with hexane molecules. This competitive thermodynamic model can be applied successfully to all three interfaces.
