The effectiveness of surface adsorption in an aqueous solution of mixtures of surfactants composed of an anionic surfactant, sodium dodecylsulphate, mixed with a nonionic one, polyoxyethylenated nonylphenol, was studied. Their behavior was compared separately. This surface adsorption was characterized by the values of the surface tension at 25°C of the total concentrations below, but near to the critical micelle concentration (CMC) in the mixtures mentioned. These were obtained as a function of different proportions of surfactants in the mixture and different chain lengths of nonionic polyoxyethylenated surfactant. The total surface excess concentrations of the surfactant mixtures and the average of molecular area per surfactant species at the aqueous solution/air interface were calculated. Finally, the values were analyzed vs the above parameters.
