Abstract

Properties of mixed, two-component adsorption layers of butanol/thiourea, butanol/m-toluidine and butanol/p-toluidine in 1 M NaClO4 were investigated. The systems were characterized by the measurements of differential capacity, zero charge potential and surface tension at this potential. The data were analyzed to obtain the surface pressure and relative surface excess of thiourea, m-toluidine or p-toluidine as a function of charge and bulk concentration of these substances. The standard Gibbs energy of adsorption and parameters α, B obtained from the Frumkin and virial isotherms were compared. The electrostatic parameters of the inner layer were determined.

Keywords: Mixed adsorption; Mercury; Differential capacity; Surface tension.
