摘要

Optical waveguide spectroscopy of aqueous bromothymol blue (BTB) solutions confirmed that neutral BTB molecules could easily adsorb from both acidic and basic solutions onto hydrophobic surfaces and that the molecular BTB adsorption from basic solution, causing transient nonequilibrium between the molecular and anionic BTB concentrations, was accompanied with the conversion of BTB- anions into BTB molecules in the solution.
