Abstract: The thermodynamics of micella formation and interfacial adsorption for a new synergistic extraction system Ga3+-D2EHPA-H2MPAwere studied, where H2MPAis a monoalkyl phosphate extractant with a long carbon chain.It was found that the concentration of HzMPAin the mixed extraction system exhibits the effect on the interfacial adsorption properties of D2EHPAand H2MPA, the interfacial adsorption behaviour of D2EHPAis opposite to that of H2MPAat the middling and high[H2MPA].At the same time D2EHPAalso exhibits the effect on the thermodynamics of interfacial adsorption and micella formation of H2MPA.Mathematical model for different factors depending on the interfacial tension was obtained.Some thermodynamic parameters of micella formation and interfacial adsorption properties were obtained.
