“…Then, at the equilibrium concentration (C e ) of 3 mM, the amount of adsorption ( ) on the untreated sample exhibits a sharp rise related to the precipitation of Me(SD) 2 . As the CMC is reached, the precipitate is solubilized in the micellar phase, resulting in a decreasing amount adsorbed (45). In contrast, in the same range of equilibrium concentration, the adsorption of SDS on the washed talc sample C slightly increases from 10.8 to 12 µmol g −1 .…”
