Synergistic Adsorption of MIBC/CTAB Mixture at the Air/Water Interface and Applicability of Gibbs Adsorption Equation

The synergistic adsorption of a binary surfactant mixture was investigated by tensiometry and neutron reflectometry. The results directly contradicted the conventional Gibbs adsorption equation. The accompanied molecular simulation demonstrated a multilayer arrangement at the synergic conditions, wi...
