当Na₂CO₃浓度逐渐增加时, 用流变学的方法研究了阴离子表面活性剂油酸钠(NaOA)在溶液中从胶束转变成蠕虫状胶束的过程. 首先测量体系剪切粘度(η)和剪切速率的关系得到零剪切粘度(η₀). 然后由动态振荡实验得到复合粘度(|η^*|)、动态模量(储能模量G'、损耗模量G"和结构松弛时间τ_s)等物理量. 应用Cox-Merz规则和Cole-Cole图, 证明NaOA (0.040～0.080 mol/L)/Na₂CO₃ (0.25～0.50 mol/L)体系形成蠕虫状胶束, 且蠕虫状胶束的动态粘弹性在NaOA (0.050～0.080 mol/L)/Na₂CO₃ (0.35～0.45 mol/L)范围是符合Maxwell模型的线性粘弹性流体.     

十六烷基三甲基溴化铵/油酸钠混合体系蠕虫状胶束流变性研究

阴、阳离子表面活性剂之间强烈的相互作用利于形成自由弯曲的蠕虫状胶束。本文利用阳离子表面活性剂十六烷基三甲基溴化铵(CTAB)和阴离子表面活性剂油酸钠(Na OA)制备了CTAB/Na OA蠕虫状胶束,研究了两表面活性剂的混合比和表面活性剂总浓度的变化对蠕虫状胶束体系稳态流变性及动态粘弹性的影响。结果表明,蠕虫状胶束在剪切过程中的解缠、拟网状结构的破坏以及最终沿剪切速度方向取向等是蠕虫状胶束产生剪切稀释特性的原因。两表面活性剂的混合比和表面活性剂总浓度的变化导致表面活性剂之间的静电作用、疏水作用发生较大的变化,最终引起体系内部表面活性剂聚集体形态的差异。体系内蠕虫状胶束长度、体系结构复杂程度、蠕虫状胶束形成的网络结构的致密度等都影响着体系的流变行为。在混合比R=3.6、总浓度CT=0.24mol/L时,体系中蠕虫状胶束最长,网络结构最为紧密,体系的零剪切粘度达到最大值。表面活性剂浓度一定时,混合比的提高有助于蠕虫状胶束的定向生长,弛豫时间τR和储能模量高频区平台模量G0提高,R=3.6时两者皆达到极大值,此后由于蠕虫状胶束的分枝化及(或)胶束破裂导致τR及G0下降。在表面活性剂混合比一定(R=3.6)时,表面活性剂浓度的提高利于蠕虫状胶束的增长或者分枝化,增加了胶束网络结构缠绕(融合)点的密度,导致G0逐渐增大。Cole-Cole图证实本文研究的蠕虫状胶束体系是符合Maxwell模型的线性粘弹性流体。     

疏水缔合聚丙烯酸与蠕虫状胶束的协同作用

从宏观流变性和介观尺度方面, 研究了疏水缔合聚丙烯酸(HMPA)与油酸钠(NaOA)构筑的蠕虫状胶束的协同作用. 考察HMPA对蠕虫状胶束溶液流变性和表观粘度的影响, 结果表明, 极少量HMPA的引入导致蠕虫状胶束溶液体系动态模量明显增加; 其表观粘度随HMPA浓度的增加先增强后减弱. 另一方面, 通过耗散颗粒动力学(DPD)分子模拟方法研究了混合体系中溶液组成对HMPA分子链的均方根末端距的影响. 结果表明,随着NaOA浓度增加, HMPA的均方根末端距会出现峰值; HMPA的伸展程度受其自身浓度变化制约, 相对于纯HMPA体系, NaOA胶束的存在对高浓度区的HMPA伸展程度影响更明显. 结合流变实验和分子模拟结果,初步解释了聚合物与蠕虫状胶束的协同作用机制.

CO2 responsive wormlike micelles based on sodium oleate,potassium chloride and N,N-dimethylethanolamine

The anionic surfactant sodium oleate (NaOA) can self-assemble in aqueous solution in the presence of counter-ion inorganic salts to form wormlike micelles (WLMs), which exhibited viscoelastic behavior. In this paper, KCl was used to induce the formation of wormlike micelles with sodium oleate. In this process, we found that the addition of N, N-dimethylethanolamine (DMEA) can destroy the structure of WLMs leading significant decrease of viscosity. However, after introducing CO₂ into the ternary solution (KCl-NaOA-DMEA), the WLMs can be regenerated due to the electrostatic interaction between the protonated DMEA and the anionic surfactants. The addition of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) causes the electrostatic interaction between OA^- and DMEAH⁺ be destroyed, which results in the wormlike micelles becoming spherical micelles of lower viscosity. The transition of WLMs with high viscosity and low viscosity spherical micelles can be repeated several times by using CO₂ and NaOH.     

Preparation of CO2 responsive wormlike micelles and the effect of hydrogen bond on the strength of the network

We first prepared two types of CO₂-responsive wormlike micelles based on N-butyldiethanolamine–sodium oleate (BDEA–NaOA) and N,N-diethyl butylamine–sodium oleate (DEBA–NaOA), respectively. And then, we compared the two different systems to investigate the effect of hydrogen bond on the properties of wormlike systems. The results of the pH and conductivity variation show that tertiary amine groups on BDEA and DEBA were ionized to quaternary ammonium salts after bubbling of CO₂ into the systems, which work with OA^? to form wormlike micelles based on electrostatic interaction. The results of rheological measurements exhibit that the viscosity and viscoelastic of the BDEA–NaOA were obviously superior to DEBA–NaOA. The dramatically difference of the two kind of wormlike micelles was due to the strong intermolecular hydrogen bond between the BDEA and NaOA. This indicates that the hydrogen bond could show great effect on the properties of the wormlike micelles. Finally, a reasonable mechanism was proposed based on the molecular structure, micelles assembly, and the intermolecular interactions.     

Anionic wormlike micellar fluids that display cloud points: rheology and phase behavior

We report our investigations into the self-assembly of sodium oleate (NaOA) in the presence of a binding salt (triethylammonium chloride, Et(3)NHCl) simple salt (potassium chloride, KCl). Both salts promote the growth of long, wormlike micelles in NaOA solutions, thereby increasing the fluid viscosity. The significant difference with the Et(3)NHCl salt is that it also modifies the phase behavior of NaOA solutions. Specifically, NaOA/Et(3)NHCl solutions display cloud points upon heating, followed by phase separation into two liquid phases. Such cloud point behavior is rarely observed in ionic surfactant systems, although it is common in nonionic surfactant solutions. Interestingly, while cloud points are not observed with KCl, the addition of KCl to NaOA/Et(3)NHCl solutions further lowers the cloud point temperature. Also, in the case of tetraethylammonium halide salt, neither a cloud point nor an increase in viscosity is observed. The clouding in the case of Et(3)NHCl is attributed to the temperature-induced aggregation of anionic micelles whose surface is covered by bound counterions.     

Rheological properties of wormlike micelles formed in the sodium oleate/trisodium phosphate aqueous solution

Aqueous solution of anionic surfactant,sodium oleate（NaOA）,was studied by means of steady-state shear rheology and dynamic oscillatory technique.The system of NaOA/Na3PO4 showed high viscosity,strong viscoelasticity and good ability of countering Ca^2＋,Mg^2＋.The Maxwell model and Cole-Cole plot were applied to study the dynamic viscoelasticity of wormlike micelles.The microstructures of the wormlike micelles were characterized by FF-TEM.     

Rheological properties of wormlike micelles in sodium oleate solution induced by sodium ion

Aqueous solutions of anionic surfactant, sodium oleate (NaOA), have been studied by means of steady-state shear rheology and dynamic oscillatory technique. The micellar structure can be changed upon the addition of NaCl, Na₂CO₃ and NaCl/NaOH while NaOA concentration is maintained at 0.060 M. These systems except NaOA/NaCl show high viscosity and strong viscoelasticity. The hydroxide ion is very important for the formation of wormlike micelles. The anions of salts also have effect on the rheological properties of wormlike micelles. Three parameters: intersection frequency ω_i, plateau modulus G₀ and relaxation time τ are also discussed. The Maxwell model and Cole-Cole plot are applied to investigate the dynamic viscoelasticity of wormlike micelles. Variation in surfactant packing parameter R_P can be used to explain the change of rheology and microstructure of the micelles.     

Wormlike micelles mediated by polyelectrolyte

Aqueous solutions of the anionic surfactant potassium oleate (K-oleate) were studied using small-angle neutron scattering (SANS), steady-state rheology, and cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM). The micellar structural changes induced by the addition of potassium chloride (KCl) and sodium polystyrenesulfonate (PSS) of different molecular weights were investigated. Upon addition of KCl, a transition from spherical to wormlike micelles was detected from the SANS data and confirmed by the cryo-TEM pictures. The rheological measurements revealed a strong dependence of the low-shear viscosity on the concentration of salt: a broad maximum in the viscosity curve was observed upon addition of KCl, characteristic of the growth of micelles into long worms, followed by branching. The addition of PSS to salt-free solutions of K-oleate had a significant effect on the scattering patterns, revealing partial growth of the spherical micelles into rodlike micelles. In contrast, in the presence of high salt concentrations, addition of PSS to solutions of wormlike micelles did not bring any noticeable modifications in the scattering. However, in the same salt conditions, a clear effect was observed on the low shear viscosity upon addition of PSS, which was found to depend significantly on molecular weight. This suggests a novel way of impacting the viscosity of solutions of wormlike micelles.     

Rheological behavior of viscoelastic wormlike micelles in mixed sodium dodecyl trioxyethylene sulfate–monolaurin aqueous system

Rheological behavior of viscoelastic wormlike micelles in an aqueous system of mixed sodium dodecyl trioxyethylene sulfate (SDES)–monolaurin (ML) is presented. Dilute aqueous solution of SDES has a high fluidity and follows Newtonian liquid-like behavior due to formation of small globular type of micellar structure. Addition of lipophilic nonionic cosurfactant ML to dilute or semidilute solution of SDES decreases the interfacial curvature of the aggregates favoring one dimensional micellar growth, and hence, viscosity increases. After a certain concentration of ML, the elongated micelles get entangled with each other leading to the formation of viscoelastic wormlike micelles. The viscoelastic solution follows Maxwell model of a single stress relaxation mode at low-frequency region. Further addition of ML decreases the viscosity of the solution due to formation of micellar joints in the network structure. The viscosity of the viscoelastic wormlike micelles decreases upon heating, and the system with poor viscoelastic character is observed at higher temperatures.     

Wormlike micelles in mixed amino acid-based anionic/nonionic surfactant systems

We present the formation of viscoelastic wormlike micelles in mixed amino acid-based anionic and nonionic surfactants in aqueous systems in the absence of salt. N-Dodecylglutamic acid (designated as LAD) has a higher Krafft temperature; however, on neutralization with alkaline amino acid l-lysine, it forms micelles and the solution behaves like a Newtonian fluid at 25 degrees C. Addition of tri(oxyethylene) monododecyl ether (C(12)EO(3)) and tri(oxyethylene) monotetradecyl ether (C(14)EO(3)) to the dilute aqueous solution of the LAD-lysine induces one-dimensional micellar growth. With increasing C(12)EO(3) or C(14)EO(3) concentration, the solution viscosity increases gradually, but after a certain concentration, the elongated micelles entangle forming a rigid network of wormlike micelles and the solution viscosity increases tremendously. Thus formed wormlike micelles show a viscoelastic character and follow the Maxwell model. Tri(oxyethylene) monohexadecyl ether (C(16)EO(3)), on the other hand, could not form wormlike micelles, although the solution viscosity increases too. The micelles become elongated; however, they do not appear to form a rigid network of wormlike micelles in the case of C(16)EO(3). Rheological measurements have shown that zero shear viscosity (eta(0)) increases with the C(12)EO(3) concentration gradually at first and then sharply, and finally decreases before phase separation. However, no such maximum in the eta(0) plot is observed with the C(14)EO(3). The eta(0) increases monotonously with the C(14)EO(3) concentration till phase separation. In studies of the effect of temperature on the wormlike micellar behavior it has been found that the eta(0) decays exponentially with temperature, following an Arrehenius behavior and at sufficiently higher temperatures the solutions follow a Newtonian behavior. The flow activation energy calculated from the slope of log eta(0) versus 1/T plot is very close to the value reported for typical wormlike micelles. Finally, we also present the effect of neutralization degree of lysine on the rheology and phase behavior. The formation of wormlike micelles is confirmed by the Maxwell model fit to the experimental rheological data and by Cole-Cole plots.
