A two-component interfacial layer model was employed to describe the experimental results obtained for various surfactants. In contrast to the previous works, here it is shown that the adsorption activity of alkane depends on its interaction with the adsorbed surfactant and is proportional to the surface coverage by this surfactant. Also, it is assumed that this increase of the adsorption activity parameter is limited by some maximum value. This model provides a good description of the influence of hexane and dodecane, which results in the decrease of surface tension by 2-5 mN/m at very low surfactant concentrations. The adsorbed amounts of the surfactant and alkane molecules in this low surfactant concentration range have been calculated. The reorientation model of surfactant adsorption predicts a smaller number of alkane molecules per one surfactant molecule than that which follows from the Frumkin model.
