Determination of Bulk and Surface Diffusion Coefficients from Experimental Data for Thin Liquid Film Drainage.

This note presents a method for the determination of the surface diffusion coefficient and surface diffusion flux. The theoretical considerations are based on the Onsager linear theory for the definition of the surface diffusion flux and on the Einstein theorem for the definition of the surface diffusion parameter. In this interpretation the surface diffusion coefficient differs from the one commonly defined in the literature. It does not depend on the surfactant concentration and it is a function only of the type of surfactant and the liquid/liquid interface. The theoretical calculations indicate that the effect of the surface diffusion on the film drainage is stronger than that predicted by previous theoretical studies. The experimental data for thin liquid film drainage in the case of low surfactant concentration in the continuous phase could be used for the calculation of the bulk and surface diffusion coefficients. In the present study we utilized the experimental data for the drainage of nitrobenzene films stabilized by different concentrations of dodecanol. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.
