Tsarkova L. A., Ph.D. Sc., Researcher, Soboleva O. A., Ph.D. Sc., Associate Professor, Department of Colloid Chemistry, Faculty of Chemistry, Moscow State University named after M.V. Lomonosov
This paper proposes the application of tensiometric methods for the integral analysis of the composition of the gaseous phase above a perfume product, as well as for the study of the influence of the compositions of mixed solutions on the competing adsorption of volatile amphiphilic substances at the solution/air interface and their evaporation into the free volume. The essence of the approach is the measurement of the dynamic surface tension of solutions of volatile fragrant substances, which have pronounced surface-active properties.
