The role of competitive counterion adsorption on the electrolyte induced surface ordering in methyl ester sulfonate surfactants at the air-water interface
The strong binding of Al3+ trivalent counterions to the anionic surfactants sodium polyethylene glycol monoalkyl ether sulfate and α-methyl ester sulfonate results in surface multilayer formation at the air-water interface. In contrast the divalent and monovalent counterions Ca2+ and Na+ result only...
