Superposition-additive approach in the description of thermodynamic parameters of formation and clusterization of substituted alkanes at the air/water interface

► Transferability of molecular properties using the superposition-additive approach. ► Application of the superposition-additive approach to amphiphiles. ► Precise estimation of thermodynamic parameters of clusterization of amphiphiles. ► Using this approach the thermodynamic quantities agree well with available data.
