Although increasing the molecular weight of PEG can increase the polarity difference between the two phases, the significant viscosity of the PEG phase makes mass transfer difficult once the PEG molecular weight is too high. In the present study, we focus on enhancing the performance of low-molecular-weight PEG (PEG 400)/salt ATPS by using different ionic surfactants as adjuvants; the surfactants include anionic surfactants sodium dodecyl sulfate and sodium dodecyl benzenesulfonate, cationic surfactant dodecyl trimethylammonium bromide, and zwitterionic surfactant N-dodecyl-N, N-dimethyl-3-ammonio-1-propanesulfonate. It is found that all of these surfactants can promote the PEG 400/salt ATPS formation, but their effects on the ATPS extraction performance are different. By using tryptophan and vanillin as model extracts, it is found that the anionic and zwitterionic surfactants significantly enhance the extraction performance of PEG 400/salt ATPS, while the cationic surfactant significantly reduces the ATPS extraction performance.

We employ a comprehensive temperature-dependent data set comprising over 1300 CMC values across diverse surfactant classes. Fourteen molecular descriptors are extracted via density functional theory (DFT) calculations and used as input, alongside temperature. A fully connected neural network trained on these features yields accurate predictions, achieving performance comparable to previously published graph-based models. To support model interpretability, we explicitly assessed ESP distributions for representative surfactants. SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) and partial dependence analyses reveal that molecular volume, ESP variance, and solvation free energy are the dominant predictors, aligning with established thermodynamic theories. These results demonstrate that DFT-derived electrostatic and geometric descriptors can enable robust and interpretable CMC prediction, offering a physically grounded alternative to black-box models.
