FURTHER STUDIES OF DETERGENCY

Abstract

Further study of the proposed (1) detergency (D) - micellar solubilization (S) functlon, D = K1S + K2, centered around the connection of the constants K1 and K2 to physicochemical factors of soil and surfactant, has resulted in estabTishing K1 and K2 relationships for 4-point (4 surfactants-l soil, and 4 soils - 1 surfactant) and 5-point (5 surfactants - 1 soil) systems. The constants appear to be related to physical, and not random, parameters. Trends in the derived K1 and K2 relationships are (a) K2 values of both multi-surfactant and multi-soil systems are functions of Antonow's interfacial tension, (b) K1 values of multi-surfactant systems are connected to surfactant HLB, while K1 values of multi-soil systems are connected to soil dipole moment, (c) prevalence of trigonometric funtions especially in 5-point systems.
