This paper describes how the cationic polyelectrolyte, polyDMDAAC (poly(dimethyl diallylammonium chloride)), is used to manipulate the adsorption of the anionic surfactant SDS and the mixed ionic/nonionic surfactant mixture of SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate)/C12E6 (monododecyl hexaethylene glycol) onto the surface of hydrophilic silica. The deposition of a thin robust polymer layer from a dilute polymer/surfactant solution promotes SDS adsorption and substantially modifies the adsorption of SDS/C12E6 mixtures in favor of a surface relatively rich in SDS compared to the solution composition. Different deposition conditions for the polyDMDAAC layer are discussed. In particular, at higher solution polymer concentrations and in the presence of 1 M NaCl, a thicker polymer layer is deposited and the reversibility of the surfactant adsorption is significantly altered.
