In this paper different amine alginate salts were prepared by neutralization of alginic acid with amine compounds (triethanol amine, tri-isopropanol amine and hexamine). The chemical structures of the prepared compounds were confirmed using Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The surface properties of the target surfactants were studied and the surface parameters were determined; including surface tension, critical micelle concentration, maximum surface excess and minimum surface area, with and without addition of dodecytrimethyl ammonium bromide as a co-surfactant. Finally, the standard free energies of micellization and adsorption of the prepared surfactants were calculated. The obtained results indicated that, the adsorption activity of the three prepared alginate salts had increased by addition of very low concentration (0.0005 m/L) of DTAB surfactant, owing to the formation of an electrostatically stabilized Surfactant-Polyelectrolyte Complex.
