We present the review of the existing methods for describing adsorption at fluid interfaces that may be applicable for multiple charge cationic surfactant structures of various architectures—multiheaded (e.g., dicephalic) structures and multimeric surfactants (e.g., dimeric (so-called gemini), trimeric, tetrameric, etc.). We discuss the role of the prefactor the in the Gibbs adsorption equation originating from the number of charges present in the adsorbed layer and the reasons for the deviation from its thermodynamic value. We present several models of adsorption that can be used to describe surface tension isotherms and appreciate the role of prof. Peter Kralchevski in their development. Application of molecular dynamics methods combined with the approach based on the thermodynamic models of multicharged surfactant adsorption may lead to an explanation of some experimentally observed phenomena and can provide the basis for the development of novel materials designated for a variety of applications.
