Coadsorption of long-chain primary amines and alcohols on silicates (quartz and albite) at pH 6-7 was studied using Fourier transform (DRIFTS and IRRAS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The ionization state of the amino headgroups, the molecular orientation, and packing in the adsorbed mixed monolayers were determined. The results were interpreted in terms of the modified model of 2D-3D precipitation, where the elementary adsorbing species from the solution is the amine-alcohol-water association.
