Abstract
We have proposed two refractometic methods for determination of the de gree of ethoxylation, n, of non-ionic surfactants. The first method al lows calculation of n from the measured values of the refractive index and the density of the sample. In the second method n is found from a calibration curve and the measured refractive index.
