Summary
The adsorption of Aerosol OT from aqueous solution on to six adsorbates of known specific surface area but of varying surface properties has been measured. For the polar surfaces adsorption corresponding to a double layer was found to occur. The first layer is adsorbed with the surfactant polar heads directed to polar sites on the surface while the second layer is held by interchain cohesion. With the non-polar carbon surface of Sterling MT adsorption is physical and reaches a completely packed monolayer. A maximum in the adsorption was found only for the adsorption of Aerosol from water on to calcium phosphate and carbonized coal.
