Effect of solvent on surfactant adsorption kinetics: Dibutyl phthalate in aqueous MeOH solvents

Despite extensive literature regarding the effect of solvent on numerous physicochemical processes, the solvent effect on the adsorption kinetics of a surface-active compound is yet to be explored. This study first investigated the adsorption kinetics of dibutyl phthalate (DBP) in 1 wt% aqueous methanol (MeOH) solvent: dynamic and equilibrium surface tension (ST) data were measured using a pendant bubble tensiometer and the resultant ST data...
