Interfacial dilational properties of anionic gemini surfactants with polymethylene spacers

The dilational properties of anionic gemini surfactants alkanediyl-α,ω-bis(m-octylphenoxy sulfonate) (C₈C_mC₈) with polymethylene spacers at the water–air and water–decane interfaces were investigated by oscillating barriers and interfacial tension relaxation methods. The influences of oscillating frequency and bulk concentration on the dilational properties were explored. The experimental results show that the linking spacer plays an important role in the interfacial dilational properties. The moduli pass through one maximum for all three gemini surfactants at both water–air and water–decane interfaces. However, the values of moduli at the water–air interface are obviously higher than those at the water–decane interface because the sublayer formed by spacer chains will be destroyed by the insertion of oil molecules. Moreover, with the increase of spacer length, the surface adsorption film becomes more viscous at high concentration, which can be attributed to the process involving the formation of the sublayer. On the other hand, the spacers of the adsorbed C₈C₆C₈ molecules will extend into the oil phase when the interface is compressed. As a result, the interfacial film becomes more elastic with the increase of spacer length at high concentration. The experimental results obtained by the interfacial tension relaxation measurements are in accord with those obtained by the oscillating barriers method.

双子表面活性剂及其抗菌性能

Gemini surfactants contain two hydrophilic and two hydrophobic groups connected by a linkage close to the hydrophilic groups. Gemini surfactants have lower critical micelle concentration, higher surface activity, greater efficiency in decreasing the surface tension of water and the interfacial tension between water and oil, and better water solubility than conventional surfactants. Gemini surfactants are widely used as sterilizing, bacteriostatic, anti-foaming, and drug release agents in various enterprises including food production and industrial cleaning. They, therefore, play a very important social, economic, and industrial role. This paper briefly summarizes gemini surfactant development, structure, self-assembly, activity, classification, and characteristics, as well as focuses on the antibacterial mechanisms of these compounds. It is expected that the antibacterial properties of gemini surfactants may help slow the spread of the novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV).

Gemini surfactants at the air/water interface: a fully atomistic molecular dynamics study

Gemini surfactants typically consist of two single-chain surfactants chemically linked by a spacer molecule. We report herein the results of fully atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of a series of Gemini surfactants: CsH2s-alpha,omega-bis(C12H25N+(CH3)2Cl-), at the air/water interface with s = 3, 4, 6, 12, 14, and 16, at values of the initial surface area per surfactant AS = 70 A2, 77 A2, 95 A2, 151 A2, 133 A2, and 103 A2, respectively. The AS values employed were obtained from surface tension and neutron reflection experiments at the respective cmc of each surfactant. The Gemini surfactant corresponding to s = 3 was also simulated at AS = 105 A2, which is the experimentally derived value of surface area per surfactant at 1/10th of cmc. Only the surfactants with s = 12 and 14 and the surfactant with s = 3 at AS = 105 A2 gave a stable monolayer at the air/water interface. In other cases, we observe movement of some surfactant molecules from the air/water interface into the aqueous phase, resulting in a stable primary monolayer of surfactants at the air/water interface and a small concentration of surfactant molecules below it. The latter form aggregates, with their hydrophobic chains in the core. The density profiles along the normal to the interface are compared with the ones obtained from neutron reflection experiments. The MD simulations confirm the bending of the spacer toward the hydrophobic chains as the spacer length is increased and the spacer becomes more hydrophobic. The simulations have helped to shed light on the low-resolution picture which emerges from experimental analyses.     

Role of the spacer stereochemistry on the structure of solid-supported gemini surfactants aggregates

Energy dispersive X-ray diffraction was applied to investigate the role of the spacer stereochemistry on the structure of the solid supported aggregates of three stereoisomeric cationic gemini surfactants, 2,3-dimethoxy-1,4-bis-(N-hexadecyl-N,N-dimethylammonio)butane dibromide. Solid-supported Gemini surfactant aggregates self-assemble into highly interdigitated multibilayer stacks. Structural properties, such as the bilayer thickness, the headgroup size, the thickness of the hydrophobic core, and the size of the interbilayer water region, were derived from electron density profiles. Results show that the stereochemistry of the spacer controls the structural properties of the solid-supported interfacial aggregates.     

Synthesis and Applications of Alkylbenzene Sulfonate Gemini Surfactants

A series of anionic Gemini surfactants with the same structure except for the spacer and side chain length of the alkylbenzene sulfonate were synthesized based on dodecyl benzene and toluene. The structures of the compounds were confirmed by infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and elemental analyses. The effect of spacer and side chain length on the interfacial tension of Gemini surfactant solution was investigated by comparison of the critical micelle concentration (cmc) of the surfactants in aqueous solution using the drop volume method, and the surface tension at the cmc (γcmc). The Gemini surfactant with the best properties was used as emulsifier in emulsion polymerization of methyl methacrylate, and its foam stability was also determined.
