title: Thermodynamic properties of adsorption and micellization of n-oktyl-β-D-glucopiranoside.
abstract: Measurements of the surface tension, density and viscosity of aqueous solutions of n-oktyl-β-D-glucopiranoside (OGP) were made at 293 K. From the obtained results the Gibbs surface excess concentration of OGP at the water-air interface and its critical micelle concentration were determined. The Gibbs surface excess concentration of OGP used in the Gu and Zhu isotherm equation allowed us to determine the Gibbs standard free energy of OGP adsorption at the water-air interface. The Gibbs standard free energy of OGP adsorption was also determined on the basis of the Langmuir, Szyszkowski, Gamboa and Olea equations as well the surface tension of "hydrophobic" part of OGP and "hydrophobic" part-water interface tension. It appeared that there is an agreement between the values of Gibbs standard free energy of OGP adsorption at the water-air interface determined by using all the above mentioned methods. It also proved that standard free energy of OGP micellization determined from CMC is consistent with that obtained on the basis of the free energy of the interactions between the "hydrophobic" part of the OPG through the water phase.
