有机改性膨润土对己唑醇水悬浮体系物理稳定性的影响

利用4种季铵盐阳离子表面活性剂（十二烷基二甲基苄基氯化铵(1227)、十四烷基二甲基苄基氯化铵(1427)、十六烷基三甲基氯化铵(1631)和十八烷基三甲基氯化铵(1831)）分别对钠基膨润土（Na-Ben）进行有机改性,制得4种有机膨润土（1227-Ben、1427-Ben、1631-Ben和1831-Ben）并进行了红外光谱及X射线分析,考察了4种有机膨润土在水中的悬浮性能及对5%己唑醇水悬体系物理稳定性能的影响。 FT-IR及XRD分析结果表明,供试季铵盐阳离子的有机碳链均进入到膨润土的片层间。 水中悬浮性能测定实验表明,1831-Ben在水中悬浮性能相对较好,而其它3种均不理想,特别是1227-Ben和1427-Ben表现出强烈的斥水现象。 沉降试验表明,有机膨润土的使用有助于5%己唑醇水悬浮剂物理稳定性的提高,其中用1831-Ben制备出的水悬浮体系的物理稳定性明显优于其它3种,制剂析水率最低,屈服值与粘度最大,体系悬浮率最高,可见1831-Ben可以用作5%己唑醇水悬浮剂的抗沉降剂。

New piperazine‐based polymerizable monoquaternary cationic surfactants: Synthesis,polymerization, and swelling characteristics of gels

Monoquaternary cationic polymerizable surfactants of type N‐acryloyl‐N′‐methyl‐N′‐alkyl piperazinium bromide based on piperazine heterocycle was synthesized by reacting N‐acryloyl‐N′methyl piperazine with the corresponding n‐alkyl bromide (decyl, dodecyl, tetradecyl, and hexadecyl) in anhydrous acetone at room temperature. The resulting surfactants were deliquescent to display any sharp melting points. The surface activity was studied by surface tension measurements. Due to the complex head group geometry of these surfactants, the critical micelle concentration value was high in comparison to the analogous alkyltrimethyl ammonium bromides of similar alkyl chain length. The surfactants were polymerized by micellar (in water) and isotropic (in benzene) conditions and the resulting polymers were characterized by solubility and viscosity studies. The polymers prepared in water showed higher viscosity than the ones prepared in benzene as a result of micellar aggregation in water. The reduced viscosity of the polymers in polar solvents such as methanol and dimethyl formamide (DMF) showed polyelectrolyte‐like behavior, whereas nonelectrolyte behavior was observed in chloroform. pH‐responsive hydrogels were prepared by polymerizing the surfactants in the bicontinuous phase of a microemulsion. The resulting polymers did not exhibit any definite micro/nanostructure due to cross‐polymerization of the hydrophilic oil in the bicontinuous network structure. The gels were highly responsive to changes in pH of the medium and showed high‐swelling degree in acidic media owing to the protonation of the tertiary nitrogen of the piperazine ring. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Effect of adsorbed layer surface roughness on the QCM-D response: focus on trapped water

The effect of surface roughness on the quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) response was investigated with emphasis on determining the amount of trapped water. Surfaces with different nanoroughnesses were prepared on silica by self-assembly of cationic surfactants with different packing parameters. We used surfactants with quaternary ammonium bromide headgroups: the double-chained didodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (C12)2DAB (DDAB), the single-chained hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide C16TAB (CTAB), and dodecyltrimethyl-ammonium bromide C12TAB (DTAB). The amount of trapped water was obtained from the difference between the mass sensed by QCM-D and the adsorbed amount detected by optical reflectometry. The amount of water, which is sensed by QCM-D, was found to increase with the nanoroughness of the adsorbed layer. The water sensed by QCM-D cannot be assigned primarily to hydration water, because it differs substantially for adsorbed surfactant layers with similar headgroups but with different nanoscale topographies.     

Supra-long chain surfactants with double or triple quaternary ammonium headgroups

Novel supra-long chain surfactants with double or triple quaternary ammonium salts (C(n)-2Am, C(n)-3Am, in which n represents a hydrocarbon chain length of 18, 20, and 22) were synthesized, and electrical conductivity and surface tension were used to characterize their properties depending on both the hydrocarbon chain length and number of hydrophilic groups. The Krafft temperatures decreased remarkably with an increase in the quaternary ammonium headgroups, resulting in a high solubility in water. The critical micelle concentration (cmc) increased with an increase in the number of quaternary ammonium moieties in the hydrophilic group, and the difference in the cmc was smaller for C(n)-2Am and C(n)-3Am than for C(n)-2Am and C(n)-Am of alkyltrimethylammonium bromide. The surface tension at the cmc was approximately 45 and 48 mN m(-1) for C(n)-2Am and C(n)-3Am with n=18-22, respectively. This indicated that the supra-long chain surfactants could not efficiently adsorb at the air/water interface and orient by themselves, as is known for conventional surfactants.     

LC Separation of Co-Existing Cetylpyridinium Chloride, Tetradecyltrimethylammonium Bromide and Dodecyltrimethylammonium Bromide on Silica TLC Plates with Aqueous-Organic Eluents

Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) of three cationic surfactants was performed on silica TLC plates with various solvent systems. The mutual separation of cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide (TTAB) and dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) was achieved on silica TLC plates with ethanol: 1% aqueous ammonium chloride (4:6, v/v) as an eluent. Effects of cations and anions in the mobile phase on mobility and separation of CPC, TTAB and DTAB were examined. The interference due to the presence of metal cations as impurities on the resolution in the mixture of CPC, TTAB and DTAB was also examined. The limits of detection of CPC, TTAB and DTAB estimated were 0.015, 0.031 and 0.062 μg zone⁻¹, respectively. The developed method was utilized to identify these surfactants in different spiked water samples after their preliminary separation.     

The potentiometric titration of surfactants and soaps using ion-selective electrodes

Summary Several quaternary ammonium halides have been evaluated for the precipitation titration of anionic surfactants and soaps. The titrants were hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride and bromide, hexadecylpyridinium chloride, and diisobutylphenoxyethoxyethyl(dimethyl)benzylammonium chloride. Hexadecylpyridinium chloride yielded the highest precision and largest potentiometric break. Titrations were monitored with a commercically available fluoroborate ion-selective indicator electrode and a double-junction reference electrode. Commercially available perchlorate, nitrate, and calcium electrodes may also be used for emf monitoring. This obviates the need of preparing special liquid membrane or other electrodes mostly used heretofore in the potentiometric titration of surfactants and soaps. Electrophoresis purity reagent sodium dodecylsulfate is recommended for the standardization of the quaternary ammonium halides. The reverse titration, of cationic surfactants vs. standard sodium dodecylsulfate, is similarly feasible.Work performed under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Energy by the Lawrence Livermore Laboratory under contract number W-7405-ENG-48.     

Upper critical solution temperatures of immiscible phase with dodecyl trimethylammonium bromide,methyltrioctylammoniumchloride, trimethylsulphoxoniumiodide cationic surfactants

Upper critical solution temperatures (UCST) and mutual solubilities of phenol and water were studied with 0.45 mmol kg^?1 (mm kg^?1) dodecyl trimethylammonium bromide, trimethylsulphoxonium iodide and methyltrioctylammonium chloride. The surfactants decrease the UCSTs by about 0.51–1.98°C with slight enhancement in mutual solubilities. Mole fractions of surfactants were restricted to 0.002 to 0.005 range, their hydrophilic and hydrophobic interactions enhance solubility of phenol in water by about 0.0456% as compared to water-phenol systems.

Study on the effect of chain-length compatibility of mixed anionic–cationic surfactants on the cloud-point extraction of selected organophosphorus pesticides

The chain-length compatibility of mixed anionic-cationic surfactants was investigated for the extraction of organophosphorus pesticides (OPPs). Cationic surfactants with different chain lengths (n = 12 and 16) were mixed with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS; n = 12) for the mixed anionic-cationic surfactants-based extraction. Six OPPs were studied including azinphos-methyl, parathion-methyl, fenitrothion, diazinon, chlorpyrifos, and prothiophos. Reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography was used for the determination of the studied OPPs. The extraction was performed using mixtures of SDS and cationic surfactants including dodecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide or dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB; n = 12) and cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide or cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB; n = 16). The parameters affecting the extraction efficiencies of two extraction systems were studied and discussed. The optimum condition for SDS-DTAB was 15 mmol L(-1) SDS and 1 mmol L(-1) DTAB in the presence of 15% (w/v) sodium chloride (NaCl). Meanwhile, the condition for SDS-CTAB was 10 mmol L(-1) SDS and 1.0 mmol L(-1) CTAB with 10% (w/v) NaCl. Under the optimum conditions, the extraction efficiency of SDS-DTAB (66-85%) was slightly higher than that of SDS-CTAB (61-82%). In addition, the SDS-DTAB system also gave greater enrichment factor than SDS-CTAB for all the studied OPPs. This result may be due to the compatibility of chain length between SDS and DTAB. The extraction using SDS-DTAB was successfully applied to determine OPPs in fruit samples (i.e., pomelo, apple, and pineapple). No contamination by the studied OPPs in samples was observed. Good accuracy with recoveries ranging from 77 to 105% was obtained. Low limits of detection were in the range of 0.003-0.01 mg kg(-1) which are below the MRLs established by EU-MRLs for the OPPs residues in fruit samples.     

Mixed Micellization Behavior of 12-2-12 Gemini Surfactant with Some Alkyltrimetyl Ammonium Bromide Surfactants

Mixed micellization behavior of dimeric cationic surfactant ethanediyl-1,2-bis (dimethyldodecylammonium bromide) (12-2-12) with a series of monomeric cationic surfactants dodecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (DTAB), tetradecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (TTAB), and cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) has been studied in aqueous and aqueous polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) solutions at 298.15, 308.15, and 318.15 K, respectively, using conductometric method. Various thermodynamic parameters like mixed micelle concentration (C_m), micelle mole fraction (X₁), interaction parameter (β), and free energy of mixing (ΔG_ex) of the mixed systems have been determined and analyzed using Rubingh's regular solution theory. The results indicate that in aqueous solutions the binary mixtures of 12-2-12 with DTAB/TTAB behave nonideally with mutual synergism whereas that with CTAB shows almost ideal behavior at 298.15 K. At 318.15 K, all these binary mixtures exhibit antagonistic behavior. The effect of variation in chain length of alkyltrimethyl ammonium bromide surfactants on the interactions with 12-2-12 have also been evaluated and discussed.     

Sol–gel encapsulation of cresol red in presence of surfactants

Cresol Red (CR) pH indicator was encapsulated into silica network using the sol–gel process. Transparent monolithic disks of entrapped CR were obtained in the presence of cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) or dodecyl dimethyl amino oxide (Genaminox LA,GLA) alkyl hydroxyethyl dimethyl ammonium chloride (HY, R = 12–14) and TX-100 surfactants. UV/VIS spectra showed that the encapsulated CR retains its structure in terms of its response to pH. At the neutral conditions it is found that the HY surfactant is considered as proton donor as favor the cationic form of the indicator, while CTAB surfactant favor the neutral, however GLA surfactant, the anionic form of CR is more favored because GLA has a zwitterionic head. The surfactant GLA with TEOS has shifted the equilibrium to the ionized form of CR due to the electrostatic interaction between the surfactant and the CR anion. Therefore their pH range is dependent on the nature of a surfactant used. It is found that the HY surfactant is more efficient as far as loading of CR is concern and it widened the working pH range.     

Headgroup effects on the krafft temperatures and self-assembly of ω-hydroxy and ω-carboxy hexadecyl quaternary ammonium bromide bolaform amphiphiles: Micelles versus molecular clusters?

Eight bolaform amphiphiles were synthesised and characterised; 4 α,ω-hydroxy-alkane trialkyl (and pyridyl) ammonium bromides and 4 α,ω-carboxy-alkane trialkyl (and pyridyl) ammonium bromides where the alkyl groups were methyl, ethyl and propyl. Four of these represented new compounds. Overall the Krafft temperatures (T(K)) of the eight amphiphiles were high, with 6 of the eight possessing T(K)s greater than 45 °C. Thus most of the amphiphiles could only expect to find applications at raised temperatures limiting their potential utility. However in addition to the previously reported α,ω-hydroxy-hexadecyl triethylammonium bromide (2b) with a T(K) of 19.1 °C, another amphiphile, α,ω-carboxy-hexadecyl tripropylammonium bromide (2c) has been identified with a T(K) near ambient temperatures (T(K) of 22.1 °C). This provides an acid functional ammonium bolaform amphiphile that micellises at ambient temperatures to complement the hydroxyl derivative. A correlation between T(K) and the product of the enthalpies and T(m)s of the compounds was observed for 7 of the eight compounds. No correlation between the amphiphile critical micelle concentrations (cmc) and T(K)s was observed confirming previous reports that T(K) values are predominantly determined by crystalline stability rather than solubility. Considerable differences were observed between the various amphiphile T(K)s at different pHs but no clear trend was apparent for the various compounds (despite the degree to which the compounds' carboxylic acid and hydroxyl functionalities were likely to be ionised). The cmcs for the amphiphiles were an order of magnitude larger than those for analogous mono-ammonium amphiphiles with little difference in between the hydroxyl- and carboxy-functionalised compounds. The aggregation numbers (N(agg)) obtained for all compounds were very low (N(agg)<7) and the apparent micellar diameters for the hydroxyl-bolaforms were in the range 1.0-1.4 nm whereas those for the carboxy-compounds were in the range 2.1-2.4 nm. These results strongly suggest a difference in the packing of the two sets of amphiphiles with loose low density aggregates or 'molecular clusters' for the carboxy compounds and denser classical micellar type aggregates for the hydroxyl-compounds. In both cases however the sizes and the low aggregation numbers point suggest that these aggregates are more characteristic of the pre-micellar aggregates observed for many amphiphiles but in particular gemini surfactants.     

Binary Coalescence of Water Drops in Organic Media in Presence of Ionic Surfactants and Salts

Binary coalescence of water drops in o‐xylene and toluene, and ethylene glycol drops in toluene were studied in this work. The effects of cationic and anionic surfactants on coalescence time were studied. Cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) and cetyl pyridinium bromide (CPyBr) were used as cationic surfactants. Sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS) was used as the anionic surfactant. The effects of salts (NaCl and CaCl₂) containing monovalent and divalent ions on coalescence were investigated. The coalescence time was found to follow distributions in each of these experiments. The minimum and maximum values of the distributions were largely different. The stochastic model developed earlier by us was used to fit the distributions. The effects of the physical properties of the system (such as density, size of the drops, interfacial tension, and surface excess of adsorbed surfactant) on the model parameters were discussed.     

Thermodynamic interactions and characterisation of naphthenic oil by inverse gas chromatography

The thermodynamic properties of naphthenic oil, a plasticiser, were investigated by means of inverse gas chromatography (IGC) using 10 different kinds of solvents as probes. Some thermodynamic parameters, such as specific retention volume, weight fraction activity coefficient, Flory–Huggins interaction parameter, partial molar heats of mixing and solubility parameter were obtained to judge the interactions between oil and solvents and the solubility of oil in these solvents. The results indicated that n-heptane, n-hexane, cyclohexane, chloroform, benzene and diethyl ether are good solvents for oil at experimental temperatures. The solubility parameters of oil varied from 13.94 to 13.21?(J?cm^?3)^1/2 at temperature range 323–353?K. The solubility parameter of oil was calculated to be 14.38?(J?cm^?3)^1/2 at room temperature, which is consistent with that obtained using surface tension–solubility parameter relation method.     

Physicochemical investigation of sulfonamide-derived compounds interacting with conventional cationic surfactants in aqueous media

The sulfonamide core in compounds is effective synthons, which offer exciting perspectives in chemotherapeutic and pharmacological research. In this study, we investigated the molecular interaction of potent sulfonamide derivatives (SDs), 2-benzenesulfonamido-3-methylbutyric acid (BSB) and tetraaquabis{3-methyl-2-[(phenylsulfonyl)amino]butanoate}copper(II) (Cu-BSB), with cationic surfactants, cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) and ethylhexadecyl dimethyl ammonium bromide (EHDAB), using UV-visible spectroscopy and steady-state fluorescence measurements. Various mathematical models were applied to quantify the effect of cationic surfactants on physicochemical characteristics of BSB and Cu-BSB. These interactions were confirmed by estimating the partition coefficient (K_x), binding capacities (K_b), Stern-Volmer quenching constant (K_sv), and related Gibbs free energies (ΔG_b). The in-depth mechanism revealed that the binding mode in SD–surfactants combinational system is spontaneous and quenching exists in static mode initiated by ground-state complex formation. We believe that the true knowledge of host–guest interaction mechanisms concerning model membrane with entrapped moiety can help in better understanding of molecular recognition in related phospholipid membrane models.     

Effect of molecular structures of Gemini and polymerizable emulsifiers on cationic emulsion copolymerization of styrene and butyl acrylate

In order to understand the effect of molecular structures of emulsifiers on the cationic emulsion copolymerization of styrene (St) and butyl acrylate (BA) in details, hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB), methacryloxy ethyl hexadecyl dimethyl ammonium bromide (DMHB), ethanediyl bis(hexadecyl dimethyl ammonium bromide) (G16-2-16), and maleic acid diethyl bis(hexadecyl dimethyl ammonium bromide) (P16-8-16) were used as emulsifiers. TEM photos, instantaneous conversions, and colloidal features, such as the particle size, surface charge density, and glass transition temperature (T_g), were measured. Compared with polymerizable emulsifiers (DMHB and P16-8-16), non-polymerizable emulsifiers (CTAB and G16-2-16) produced more uniform nanospheres. In the reactions with polymerizable emulsifiers, higher reaction rates, lower surface charge densities, and lower T_g were observed. Compared with the single-chain emulsifiers, the double-chain emulsifiers resulted in lower reaction rates, bigger particle sizes, better monodispersities, and higher surface charge densities.     

原子转移自由基聚合法改性壳聚糖及其抑菌性研究

Synthesis and characterization of new cationic quaternary ammonium polymerizable surfactants

Two new polymerizable surfactants (surfmers), (11-acryloyloxyundecyl)dimethylethylammonium bromide (ethyl surfmer) and (11-acryloyloxyundecyl)dimethyl(2-hydroxyethyl)ammonium bromide (hydroxyethyl surfmer), were synthesized and characterized. The binary phase diagrams of both surfmer/water systems are described. Both surfmers can form isotropic solutions and lamellar lyotropic liquid crystalline phases. The hydroxyethyl surfmer/water system forms a lamellar phase for weight concentrations of surfmer between 70 and 90% relative to between 75 and 85% for the ethyl surfmer/water system. The differences in the self assembly of these surfmers were attributed to the ability of hydroxyethyl surfmer to form hydrogen bonds (between two head groups and with water), whereas no such interactions can occur with the ethyl surfmer system.
