Abstract

In order to develop the substitutes for polyoxyethylene tallow amine (POEA), the understanding the interaction of glyphosate isopropylamine and POEA is essential. The surface behaviors of POEA and POEA in the presence of 1 wt% glyphosate isopropylamine have been investigated at the air-water interface by the drop shape analysis method. The influences of surface tension, dilational frequency, and bulk concentration on the surface properties were expounded. The experiment results show that the adsorption films of POEA behave elastic in nature at low bulk concentration. With increasing in bulk concentration, the dilational modulus, dilational elasticity, and dilational viscosity pass through a maximum value, the phase angle increase monotonically. These phenomena can be attributed to the diffusion-exchange process between the bulk and the interface. The addition of 1 wt% glyphosate isopropylamine significantly influences on the POEA surface tension and dilational properties. The dilational modulus, dilational elasticity, and dilational viscosity obvious decrease in general, and the values of phase angle significant change after the addition of 1 wt% glyphosate isopropylamine. Glyphosate isopropylamine and POEA form a new complex in the solution and the surface activity and surface dilational properties of complex is different from POEA.
