An approach to the study of the influence of electrolytes on adsorbed nonelectrolytes at liquid surfaces is described. The adsorption of tetrabutylammonium bromide (Bu4NBr) from aqueous solution to the interfaces with octane, decanol, and air has been determined. Results are presented for the effects of some inorganic salts (NaCl, NH4Br, and Na2CO3), and of Bu4NBr on monolayers of butanol at the air – aqueous solution interface, and of Bu4NBr on dodecanol adsorbed at the octane – aqueous solution interface. The interfacial salt effects differ from the bulk effects in the cases studied. The inorganic salts, which salt-out butanol (and alkanols generally) in aqueous solution, have little or no effect on adsorbed butanol. On the other hand, Bu4NBr which salts-in alkanols in bulk aqueous solution has a strong salting-out effect on dodecanol at the liquid–liquid interface; a similar but less marked effect is observed for butanol at the liquid–vapour surface. Salting-in of alkanols by Bu4NBr in bulk has previously been ascribed to hydrophobic interactions between cations and alkyl groups of the alkanol, whereas the surface effect is assumed to result from interactions between alcoholic OH groups and cations.

The kinetics of the liquid-like → solid-like 2D phase transition of adenine adsorbed at the Hg/aqueous solution interface is studied. Attention is focused on the effect of temperature on the rate of phase change; an increase in temperature is found to cause a decrease of transition rate.

This paper presents the synthesis and evaluation of physicochemical behavior of a new series of N-alkyl-bis-o-aminobenzamides (BOABs) in aqueous solution. The study was targeted to the complexing capacity of five metal ions (Fe2+, Cu2+, Cd2+, Hg2+ and Pb2+) of environmental concern as the medullar principle of a liquid phase sensor for its application in the determination of these metal ions due to its versatility of use. Molecular fluorescence, UV-visible and Zeta potential were measured for five BOABs and the effect of alkyl groups with different central chain length (n = 3, 4, 6, 8 and 10) on physicochemical performance determined. The results have shown that these derivatives present higher sensibility and selectivity for Cu2+ even in the presence of the other metal ions. An additional application test was done adding a pectin (0.1 wt %) solution to the BOAB-Cu+2 complex to obtain a precipitate (flocs) as a potential selective separation process of Cu from aqueous solution. The solid was then lyophilized and analyzed by SEM-EDS, the images showed spheric forms containing Cu+2 with diameter of approximately of 8 μm and 30 wt %.

Adsorbent Surface

Modified pomegranate peel (MPGP) and formaldehyde modified pomegranate peel (FMPGP) were prepared and used as adsorbent for removal of Cr(VI) ions from aqueous solution using batch process. The temperature variation study of adsorption on both adsorbents revealed that the adsorption process is endothermic, from the positive values of ∆H˚. These values lie in the range of physisorption. The negative values of ∆G˚ show the adsorption is favorable and spontaneous. On the other hand, these negative values increases with increase in temperature on both adsorbents, which indicate that the adsorption is preferable at higher temperatures. ∆S˚ values showed that the process is accompanied by increase in disorder and randomness at the solid solution interface due to the reorientation of water molecules and Cr(VI) ions around the adsorbent surface. The endothermic nature of the adsorption was also confirmed from the positive values of activation energy, Ea, the low values of Ea confirm the physisorption mechanism of adsorption. The sticking probability, S*, of Cr(VI) ion on surface of both adsorbents showed that the adsorption is preferable due to low values of S*(0< S*< 1 ), but S*values are lower for FMPGP indicating that the adsorption on FMPGP is more preferable .
