Adsorption behavior of non-conventional eco-friendly tyrosine glycerol ether surfactants

► Adsorption kinetics study from several milliseconds to several hours. ► Diffusion coefficients vary in a reasonable range particularly for short adsorption times. ► Micellar kinetics is masked by an adsorption barrier at long adsorption times. ► Presence of micelles partially affects adsorption layer's interfacial rheology. ► Indication of a mainly elastic adsorption layer from interfacial dilatational rheology.
