ABSTRACT
The structure of the interface between two immiscible electrolyte solutions (ITIES) has been the matter of considerable interest since the beginning of the last century [1]. Typically, such a system consists of water (w) and an organic solvent (o) immiscible with it, each containing an electrolyte. Much information about the ITIES has been gained by application of techniques that involve measurements of the macroscopic properties, such as surface tension or differential capacity. The analysis of these properties in terms of various microscopic models has allowed us to draw some conclusions about the distribution and orientation of ions and neutral molecules at the ITIES. The purpose of the present chapter is to summarize the key results in this field.
