Abstract A passive sampler tool (solid-phase microextraction, SPME) was optimized to measure freely dissolvedconcentrations (Cw,free) of lauryl diethanolamine (C12-DEA). C12-DEA can be protonated and act as acationic surfactant. From the pH-dependent sorption to neutral SPME coatings (polyacrylate and PDMS),a pKaof 8.7 was calculated, which differs more than two units from the value of 6.4 reported else-where. Polyacrylate coated SPME could not adequately sample largely protonated C12-DEA in humic acidsolutions of pH 6. A new hydrophobic SPME coating with cation-exchange properties (C18/SCX) sorbedC12-DEA 100 fold stronger than polyacrylate, because it specifically sorbs protonated C12-DEA species.The C18/SCX-SPME fiber showed linear calibration isotherms in a concentration range of <1 nM–1μM(well below the CMC). Using the C18/SCX-SPME fibers, linear sorption isotherms to Aldrich humic acid atpH 6 (ionic strength 0.015 M) were measured over a broad concentration range with a sorption coefficientof 105.3.
