Study on rheological parameters of interfacial adsorption layers of ethoxylated water-insoluble surfactants

Abstract

The article presents the results of a study on the behavior of water-insoluble ethoxylated surfactants of different nature on the phase boundary by the method of oscillating drops and by the method of Langmuir-Blodgett films. It was shown that the water-insoluble ethoxylated surfactants form supramolecular structures and stable layers at the water/air interface.
