Abstract: The dynamic surface tension of vanillin-based polyoxyethylene ethers (VAEO) was measured by the maximum bubble pressure method.The adsorption mechanism of surfactants at gas-liquid interface was studied by using Word-Tordai equation.The results show that when the mass concentration of VAEO is below critical micelle concentration (cmc),the adsorption of VAEO obeys the mechanisms of diffusion controlled adsorption and mixed diffusion-kinetic controlled adsorption,respectively,at the early stage and the later stage of adsorption.When the mass concentration is above cmc,the adsorption mechanism is mixed diffusion-kinetic controlled adsorption,where the micelles do not affect the adsorption behavior.The magnitude of diffusion coefficients of VAEO10 and VAEO20 are 10-11 m2/s,which are lower than the NPEO9s reported in literature.

Key words: vanillin-based polyoxyethylene ether, dynamic surface tension, gas-liquid interfacial adsorption, adsorption mechanism
