摘要：
Uneven distribution of surfactant in dried latex films can affect the final film properties such as its water-resistance, gloss, and adhesiveness. Therefore, it is important to understand the driving force for surfactant transport during drying. In this paper, the accumulation of surfactant on the surface of poly(styrene-co-butyl acrylate) latex is studied using Rutherford Backscattering (RBS) and compared with results from a model that is based on the diffusive transport of particles and surfactant. Experimentally, a 30-50 nm thick surface layer, rich in surfactant, is seen and the concentration in the bulk of the film, obtained from RBS, agrees, at least qualitatively, with the model predictions for two of the surfactants tested.
