| Abstract: | The adsorption of metal ions at the stearic acid/electrolyte and nnonadccane-stearic acid mixture/electrolyte interface was investigated by means of the potentiometric titration, zeta potential and adsorption measurements. It was found that the studied colloidal suspensions exhibited an adsorption affinity towards multivalent metal ions. The adsorption of Ca2+, Cd2+ and Al3+ ions caused a strong decrease of surface charge density and zeta potential values in this systems. The adsorption reactions occur by way of cation exchange with protons from two surface carboxyl groups. Al high metal concentrations, in adsorption reactions there are involved also carboxyl groups from the subsurface layer. On the basis of the adsorption data, the cation surface complexation constants were calculated by Shindler's method. |
