Surfactant Adsorption Layers: Experiments and Modeling

V. I. Kovalchuk et al.

Summary: In recent years, significant progress has been made in the understanding of surfactant adsorption at liquid interfaces. New efficient methodologies, particularly interfacial selective optical methods, have been developed to directly access the adsorbed amounts and interfacial layer compositions. Thermodynamic equations of state provide a quantitative framework for describing surfactant interfacial layers, especially at water/oil interfaces. Molecular modeling techniques have also contributed to the understanding of interfacial layer structures. Improving the interrelationships between these aspects is a challenge for current and future research, with particular focus on dilational interfacial rheology studies.

Tuning Contact Angles of Aqueous Droplets on Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic Surfaces by Surfactants

Fabio Staniscia et al.

Summary: This study investigates the adsorption behavior of short-chained alcohols to water-vapor interfaces and solid surfaces with different polarities using molecular dynamics simulations. The researchers derive an equation for the adsorption coefficient, which shows exponential dependence on both molecular surface area and surface wetting coefficient. The findings suggest that the influence of surfactants on sessile droplets is strongest on highly hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces, while moderately hydrophilic surfaces are less affected.

An empirical model to represent the CMC behavior of aqueous solutions of homologous series of nonionic surfactants, related to its chemical constitution

Nayereh Sadat Mousavi et al.

Summary: Critical Micelle Concentration (CMC) is a fundamental property of surfactants in solution. The estimation of CMC is important for the behavior and performance of surfactant systems in different industrial applications. A simple model based on the thermodynamics of micellization was developed to predict the CMC of nonionic surfactants. The hydrophobic characteristics play a major role in micelle formation.

Ionic Surfactants at Air/Water and Oil/Water Interfaces: A Comparison Based on Molecular Dynamics Simulations

Paulina Mueller et al.

Summary: Through atomistic molecular dynamics simulations, it was found that ionic surfactants create higher interfacial pressures at oil/water interfaces compared to air/water interfaces. The influence of oil on the surfactants' in-plane distribution was identified as a major factor contributing to this effect, although not the sole reason.

Molecular Simulations of Surfactant Adsorption on Iron Oxide from Hydrocarbon Solvents

Pablo Navarro Acero et al.

Summary: This study utilized molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the adsorption process of OFMs at solid-liquid interfaces, and validated the accuracy of the simulation results through experimental friction tests. It was found that stearic acid forms monolayers with lower coverage at low concentrations but highest plateau coverage at high concentrations, while glycerol monooleate and glycerol mono-ostearate occupy similar areas on the surface.

Intersurfactant H-bonds between head groups of n-dodecyl-β-D-maltoside at the air-water interface

Matej Kanduc et al.

Summary: The study found that sugar surfactants can form intersurfactant H-bonds and H-bonds with water molecules in closely-packed monolayers, with the number of intersurfactant H-bonds decreasing and the number of surfactant-water H-bonds increasing as the distance between head groups increases. Even at very large distances below the cmc, intersurfactant H-bonds are still present, likely due to the formation of clusters at the surface. GIX scattering revealed that a homogeneous surfactant monolayer is formed at full coverage around the cmc, indicating cluster formation only occurs below the cmc.

From Surface Tension to Molecular Distribution: Modeling Surfactant Adsorption at the Air-Water Interface

Mengsu Peng et al.

Summary: Surfactants play a central role in various scientific and engineering fields, but understanding their behavior at the air-water interface still presents challenges. Research focuses on accurately describing the adsorption layer thickness of surfactants in this area. The modified Poisson-Boltzmann model has been developed to address the effects of surfactants at the air-water interface, with remaining challenges and future research directions also discussed.
