Sodium dedecyl sulfate

Some essential discoveries concerning the organization of the adsorbed layer derive from the various spectroscopic measurements [38-46]. Here considerable experimental evidence is consistent with the postulate that ionic surfactants form localized aggregates on the solid surface. Microscopic properties like polarity and viscosity as well as aggregation number of such adsorbate microstructures for different regions in the adsorption isotherm of the sodium dedecyl sulfate/water/alumina system were determined by fluorescence decay (FDS) and electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopic methods. Two types of molecular probes incorporated in the solid-liquid interface under in situ equilibrium conditions...
