A number of metals, such as copper, cobalt and h on, form a number of oxide layers during oxidation in air. Providing that interfacial thermodynamic equilibrium exists at the boundaries between the various oxide layers, the relative thicknesses of the oxides will depend on die relative diffusion coefficients of the mobile species as well as the oxygen potential gradients across each oxide layer. The flux of ions and electrons is given by Einstein s mobility equation for each diffusing species in each layer...

Sometimes it is convenient to analyze interfacial thermodynamic data at constant electrode charge density Om rather than at constant cell potential difference E. Once the interfacial tension data at a given concentration have been differentiated with respect to to obtain one may calculate the function which is given by...

The von Szyszkowski isotherm establishes the connection between the change in surface tension y and the surfactant bulk concentration. Stauff (1957) has evaluated the parameters of this semi-empirical adsorption isotherm and has shown that it is in agreement with interfacial thermodynamics. Frumkin s isotherm has often recently been used to describe the adsorption of different types of surfactants, for example by Lunkenheimer (1983), Miller (1986), Wiisteneck et al. (1993), and others. One of the main aims of this book is to show that in the many... 

First of all, surface rheology is completely described by four rheological parameters elasticity and viscosity of compression/dilatation and of shear. In every case surface flow is coupled with the hydrodynamics of the adherent liquid bulk phase. From interfacial thermodynamics we know that the integration over the deviation of the tangential stress tensor from the bulk pressure represents the interfacial tension y (after Bakker 1928). 

In the linear case, non-equilibrium properties of adsorption layers at fluid interfaces can be quantitatively described by the interfacial thermodynamic modulus (Defay, Prigogine Sanfeld 1977),... 

The change in appearance of the propane phase as pressure is reduced toward the 2-3 phase boundary is a classical indication of a transition driven by micelle-micelle interactions [14]. The observed 3 configuration would therefore represent a split of the propane phase into a surfactant-rich phase and a surfactant-lean phase, both of which are propane continuous. This interpretation of the pressure-driven phase behavior is supported by the measured phase compositions in the 3 region [22] and also by theoretical modeling of the propane-brine-AOT system using interfacial thermodynamics [43],... 

The model based on the lattice fluid SCF theory offers a means to calculate fundamental interfacial properties of microemulsions from pure component properties [25]. Because all of the relevant interfacial thermodynamic properties are calculated explicitly and the surfactant and oil molecular architectures are considered, the model is applicable to a wide range of microemulsion systems. The interfacial tension, bending moment, and interaction strength between the droplets can be calculated in a consistent manner and analyzed in terms of the detailed interfacial composition. The mechanism of the density effect on the natural curvature includes both an enthalpic and an entropic component. As density is decreased, the solvation of the surfactant tails is less favorable enthalpically, and the solvent is expelled from the interfacial region. Entropy also contributes to this oil expulsion due to the density difference between the interfacial region and the bulk. The oil expulsion and increased tail-tail interactions decrease the natural curvature.
