Adsorption of Nonylphenyl Glycol and Sorbitan Fatty Acid Ester on Carbon Black from Aqueous Solution
Two types nonionic surfactants were adsorbed on carbon black. Interface characteristics of carbon black/water were changed by these surfactant adsorptions. In each maximum amount of surfactant adsorption was carried out in order to correlated with other measuring values : zeta-potential, contact angle and overall energy of dispersion. During aqueous phase adsorption, the longer EO chain and the higher hydrophobicity, the much surfactant adsorption. At this condition zeta-potential decreased with EO chain number increasing but had no effect on hydrophobicity of surfactant, and contact angle and overall energy of dispersion decrease according to increase EO chain number and higher hydrophobicity of surfactant. In the study solid/ liquid interface characteristics, wettability, stability and overall dispersion energy were compared with these results. These show that wettability and overall dispersion energy were dependent on the EO chain number and hydrophobicity, and the stability depends on the EO chain number.
