Abstract
In this paper, we proposed a thermodynamic procedure to evaluate binary surfactant mixed adsorbed film and mixed micelle compositions above critical micelle concentrations. This theory first calculates the change in the molar ratio of two surfactants in monomer and micelle states based on the phase-separation model and then imposes the chemical equilibrium between the mixed adsorbed film and mixed micelle of known composition and concentration. We applied this theory to a cationic–nonionic surfactant mixed system, and the relationship between the calculated mixed adsorbed film composition and foam film stability was discussed using the DLVO theory.
期刊介绍:
Langmuir is an interdisciplinary journal publishing articles in the following subject categories:
Colloids: surfactants and self-assembly, dispersions, emulsions, foams
Interfaces: adsorption, reactions, films, forces
Biological Interfaces: biocolloids, biomolecular and biomimetic materials
Materials: nano- and mesostructured materials, polymers, gels, liquid crystals
Electrochemistry: interfacial charge transfer, charge transport, electrocatalysis, electrokinetic phenomena, bioelectrochemistry
Devices and Applications: sensors, fluidics, patterning, catalysis, photonic crystals
However, when high-impact, original work is submitted that does not fit within the above categories, decisions to accept or decline such papers will be based on one criteria: What Would Irving Do?
Langmuir ranks #2 in citations out of 136 journals in the category of Physical Chemistry with 113,157 total citations. The journal received an Impact Factor of 4.384*.
This journal is also indexed in the categories of Materials Science (ranked #1) and Multidisciplinary Chemistry (ranked #5).
