摘要
Dynamic surface tensions, sigma(t) for aqueous solutions of nonyl phenol ethoxylates (NPEOs) at the temperature 298.15 K were measured using a Lauda drop volume tensiometer. The non-ionic surfactants analyzed in this work were Tergitol NP-9, NP-35 and NP-40. By using the classical Ward and Torday equation, the diffusion coefficient for each bulk surfactant concentration was calculated. The equilibrium surface tension values were determined by extrapolating the dynamic surface tension to t -> infinity on the sigma(t) vs. t-(1/2) curves. These values were used to determine the critical micelle concentrations (CMC) of the surfactant aqueous solutions as well as to calculate the infinite dilution activity coefficient of the surfactant, following a model that combines the Volmer surface equation of state and the Gibbs adsorption equation.
