Surface layers of micro- and nanoparticles at fluid/liquid interfaces in absence and presence of surfactants are of large importance in the process of re-discovering Pickering systems, i.e. emulsions and foams stabilized by particles. The surface pressure/area isotherms of such layers can provide information about the properties of the used particles (dimensions, interfacial contact angles), the structure of interfacial layers, the interactions between the particles as well as about relaxation processes within the layers. For a correct description of Π-A isotherms of composite surface layers containing particles the significant difference in size of these particles to that of solvent and surfactant molecules should be taken into account. Corresponding equations can be derived on the basis of the two-dimensional solution theory. The gained equations provide satisfactory agreement with experimental data and predict realistic values for the area of particles at the interface. Also equations of state and of the dilational elasticity for composite surface layers containing particles can be obtained in the framework of the presented methodology.
