Counterion condensation, the Gibbs equation, and surfactant binding: an integrated description of the behavior of polyelectrolytes and their mixtures with surfactants at the air–water interface
By applying the Gibbs equation to the bulk binding isotherms and surface composition of the air–water (A–W) interface in polyelectrolyte–surfactant (PE–S) systems, we show that their surface behavior can be explained semiquantitatively in terms of four concentration regions, which we label as A, B,...
