Abstract
The dynamic surface activity in solutions and dynamic spreading on low-energy surfaces of isotridecanol ethoxylates with two different units were investigated by using the Wilhelmy plate, maximum bubble pressure, and contact angle method. The dynamic surface activity was analyzed by using the classical Rosen model, and the dynamic spreading was depicted by decay function. The equilibrium contact angle (θe value) and the spread rate (K value) were suggested to evaluate effectiveness and efficiency of spreading.
