Abstract: The dynamic interfacial tensions between hydrocarbons and solutions of surfactants having different hydrophiliclipophilic ability are measured.The effects of ionic strength and alkyl chain carbonnumber on dynamic interfacial tensions are also studied.It is found that adsorptiondesorption barriers are connected with the hydrophiliclipophilic ability of surfactants.There exists a large or small adsorptiondesorption barrier to the transfer of surfactant having strong hydrophilic or lipophilic ability from water to oil.The influences of ionic strength and alkyl chain carbon-number on adsorptiondesorption barriers are discussed.

Key words: Dynamic interfacial tension, Adsorption-desorption barrier, 　Hydrophilic-lipophilic ability
