The adsorption of various types of surfactants in aqueous phase was studied. The selected surfactants in this work were: non-ionic surfactants as nonyl phenol ethoxylate (NPE), surfynol 104 PA (S104) and Surfynol TG (S TG); anionic surfactants as sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and sod. diisooctyl sulfosuccinate (DOSS); and cationic surfactant as Dodecyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (QAS). The critical micelle concentration (CMC), maximum interfacial excess concentration [[GAMMA].sub.max], minimum interfacial area per surfactant molecule [A.sub.min], effectiveness of interfacial tension reduction [pi]CMC, standard free energy of micellization [DELTA]G[[degrees].sub.mic] and ...
