Adsorption of oil into surfactant monolayers and structure of mixed surfactant plus oil films
We describe a tensiometric method for determining the adsorption isotherm of an oil on a surfactant monolayer adsorbed at the air-water surface. The method involves measuring the surface pressure of oil, π(oil), as a function of its activity, a(oil), varied by changing the relative vapour pressure....
