Description The lipophilicity and specific hydrophobic area of 56 surfactants having different hydrophobic moieties and different lengths of ethylene oxide chain were determined by reversed-phase thin-layer chromatography. The effect of sodium chloride and pH on the hydrophobicity parameters were elucidated using spectral mapping technique followed by two dimensional nonlinear mapping. In each instance significant linear correlations were found between the lipophilicity and specific hydrophobic surface area of surfactants suggestingthat from a chromatographicpoint of view they behave as a homologous series of solutes. It was established that the strength ofthe effect of both salt concentration and pH is relatively low and the selectivity of their influence on the hydrophobicity parameters is markedly different.
