Apparent molar volumes, expansibilities, and isentropic compressibilities of selected electrolytes in methanol

Densities of solutions of sodium bromide, sodium perchlorate, sodium tetraphenylborate, and tetraphenylphosphonium bromide in methanol at the temperatures ranging from 283.15 to 313.15 K have been measured. Ultrasound velocities for the above systems at T = 298.15 K have been determined. From the obtained data, the partial molar volumes and the partial molar isentropic compressibilities for electrolytes in solution have been estimated. Division into the ionic contributions has been proposed on the basis of the reference electrolyte method. The existence of the high-volume intermediate shell with an enhanced structure has been suggested.     

Apparent and partial molar volumes of long-chain alkyldimethylbenzylammonium chlorides and bromides in aqueous solutions at T=15 °C and T=25 °C

Density measurements of dodecyl- (C₁₂DBACl), tetradecyl- (C₁₄DBACl), hexadecyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride (C₁₆DBACl) and of decyl- (C₁₀DBABr) and dodecyldimethylbenzylammonium bromide (C₁₂DBABr) in aqueous solutions at T=15 °C and T=25 °C have been carried out. From these results, apparent and partial molar volumes were calculated. Positive deviations from the Debye-Hückel limiting law provide evidence for limited association at concentrations below the critical micelle concentration. The change of the apparent molar volume upon micellization was calculated. The relevant parameters have been presented in function of the alkyl chain length. Apparent molar volumes of the present compounds in the micellar phase, V_φ^m, and the change upon micellization, ΔV_φ^m, have been discussed in terms of temperature and type of counterion.

Apparent molar volumes and compressibilities of selected electrolytes in dimethylsulfoxide

Densities at T = (293.15, 298.15, 303.15, 313.15, 323.15, and 333.15) K and sound velocities at T = 298.15 K of tetraphenylphosphonium bromide, sodium tetraphenylborate, sodium bromide, and sodium perchlorate in dimethylsulfoxide have been measured over the composition range from (0 to 0.3) mol · kg⁻¹. From these data, apparent molar volumes and apparent molar isentropic compressibilities at infinite dilution as well as the expansibilities have been evaluated. The results have been discussed in terms of employing tetraphenylphosphonium tetraphenylborate as a reference electrolyte in splitting the limiting apparent molar volumes and apparent molar isentropic compressibilities into ionic contributions.     

Structure of nonionic surfactant micelles in the ionic liquid ethylammonium nitrate

The structure of micelles formed by nonionic polyoxyethylene alkyl ether nonionic surfactants, C n E m , in the room-temperature ionic liquid, ethylammonium nitrate (EAN), has been determined by small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) as a function of alkyl and ethoxy chain length, concentration, and temperature. Micelles are found to form for all alkyl chains from dodecyl through to octadecyl. Dodecyl-chained surfactants have high critical micelle concentrations, around 1 wt%, and form weakly structured micelles. Surfactants with longer alkyl chains readily form micelles in EAN. The observed micelle structure changes systematically with alkyl and ethoxy chain length, in parallel with observations in aqueous solutions. Decreasing ethoxy chain length at constant alkyl chain length leads to a sphere to rod transition. These micelles also grow into rods with increasing temperature as their cloud point is approached in EAN.     

Apparent molar quantities of sodium octanoate in aqueous solutions

Densities and sound velocities of aqueous solutions of sodium octanoate were determined in a range of molalities between 0.0352 and 0.8105 mol kg^–1 at 25, 30, 35, 40 and 45 °C. The isotherms of molality dependence of both density and sound velocity were used to determine the cmcs. Apparent molar volumes and compressibilities were determined from measurements of ultrasound velocity and density. The values of apparent molar volumes and compressibilities at infinite dilution and the apparent molar quantities in the micellar range were obtained and studied as a function of temperature. Values of the critical micelle concentration and the apparent molar quantities in the premicellar and postmicellar range are discussed and compared with the values of the corresponding fluorinated compound.An erratum to this article can be found at

Solvation of ionic liquids based on N-methyl-N-alkyl morpholinium cations in dimethylsulfoxide – volumetric and compressibility studies

The density and sound velocity of the solutions of ionic liquids based on N-alkyl-N-methyl-morpholinium cations, N-ethyl-N-methylmorpholinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, N-butyl-N-methylmorpholinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, N-methyl-N-octyl-morpholinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide and N-decyl-N-methylmorpholinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide in dimethylsulfoxide were measured at T = (298.15 to 318.15) K and at atmospheric pressure. The apparent molar volume and apparent molar compressibility values were evaluated from density and sound velocity values and fitted to the Masson equation from which the partial molar volume and partial molar isentropic compressibility of the ILs at infinite dilution were also calculated at working temperatures. By using the density values, the limiting apparent molar expansibilities were estimated. The effect of the alkyl chain length of the ILs and experimental temperature on these thermodynamic properties is discussed. In addition, molecular dynamics simulations were used to interpret the measured properties in terms of interactions of ILs with solvent molecules. Both, volumetric measurements results and molecular dynamics simulations for ionic liquids in dimethylsulfoxide were compared and discussed with results obtained for the same IL in acetonitrile.     

Alkyl modified anionic siloxanes as pseudostationary phases for electrokinetic chromatography. I. Synthesis and characterization

Anionic water soluble siloxane polymers have been synthesized and characterized for electrokinetic chromatography. Siloxane polymers are of interest in electrokinetic chromatography because of the wide variety of chemistries that can be developed based on these backbones, including much of the stationary phase chemistry developed in the last 30 years. The siloxanes in this study have a sulfonate functional group. The siloxanes have different length alkyl chains (C8, C12, C18) attached to the backbone in differing densities. The methylene selectivity generally increases with increasing alkyl chain length and with increasing alkyl chain density. The electrophoretic mobility appears to pass through a maximum as more alkyl chain is added to the siloxane backbone. The efficiency also would seem to pass through a maximum as more alkyl chain is added. The chemical selectivities of the siloxane polymers are very different from sodium dodecyl sulfate but are similar to each other.     

Effect of sodium phosphate salts on the thermodynamic properties of aqueous solutions of poly(ethylene oxide) 6000 at different temperatures

Precise density, sound velocity, water activity, and phase diagram measurements have been carried out on polyethylene oxide (PEO) in aqueous solutions of sodium di-hydrogen phosphate, di-sodium hydrogen phosphate, and tri-sodium phosphate over a range of temperatures at atmospheric pressure. The experimental density and sound velocity data are used to calculate the apparent specific volume and isentropic compressibility as a function of temperature and concentration. It was found that both of the apparent specific volume and isentropic compressibility of PEO in aqueous solutions increase by increasing temperature and charge on the anion of electrolytes. The results show that the slope of constant water activity lines increased with increasing the temperature and charge on the anion of electrolytes and the vapour pressure depression for an aqueous (PEO + sodium phosphate) system is more than the sum of those for the corresponding binary solutions. Furthermore, the effect of temperature and type of anion of salt on the salting-out effect of polyethylene oxide by sodium phosphate salts has been studied.     

Influence of anionic surfactants on the electric percolation of AOT/isooctane/water microemulsions

A study was carried out concerning the influence of sodium alkyl sulfonates on the electric percolation of AOT/isooctane/water microemulsions ([AOT] = 0.5 M and W = [H2O]/[AOT] = 22.2). An important effect was observed with regard to the percolation temperature caused by the addition of small quantities of alkyl sulfonates (rho = [alkyl sulfonate]/[AOT] = 0.01). The short chain alkyl sulfonates (C3-C5) cause an increase in the percolation temperature, which in turn is reduced as we increase the chain length of the additive until we obtain a percolation temperature which is lower than that which is observed in the absence of an additive (C6-C8). For hydrocarbon chains of a greater length we can observe a new increase in the percolation temperature (C10-C18). This behavior has been explained as a consequence of (i) the incorporation of the additives at the interphase of the microemulsion and (ii) the geometric parameters of the different surfactants added to the microemulsion.     

Thermodynamics of surfactant-dye complex formation in aqueous solutions. Sodium alkyl sulfates and azo oil dye systems

Thermodynamics of surfactant-dye complex formation have been studied, in terms of equilibrium coefficient, using a spectrophotometer. The systems are 6 sodium alkyl sulfates, which have different alkyl chain lengths, and 4-phenylazo-1-naphthylamine. A pronounced spectral change in the dye solution occurs on addition of the surfactant; the change has a definite isosbestic point and a new absorption band at 535 nm because of surfactant-dye complex formation, which is caused by hydrophilic-hydrophilic interaction. As the alkyl chain length in the surfactant increases, the values of free energy change (negative) increase, while the value of enthalpy change (negative) increases and the value of entropy change (positive) decreases. The longer the alkyl chain length in surfactant increase, the more stable the surfactant-dye complex becomes.Surfactant-dye complex will form due to hydrophilic-hydrophilic interaction and will become more stable due to hydrophobic-hydrophobic interaction.     

Aggregation of Sodium 2,4,5-(tri-n-Alkyl)-benzene Sulfonates in Aqueous Solution: Micellization and Microenvironment Characteristics Studied by Electron Paramagnetic Resonance and Steady-State Fluorescence Quenching

The aggregation behaviors and microenvironmental characteristics of five sodium tri-n-alkylbenzene sulfonates (STABS) micelles have been investigated by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and steady-state fluorescence quenching (SSFQ) techniques. The results indicated that the micropolarity of STABS micelles was less sensitive to the increase of the alkyl chain length, and showed slight decrease with the increasing solution concentration. The microviscosity of STABS micelles increased with the increase of the long alkyl chain length, decreased with the increase of the short alkyl chain length, and exhibited little increase when increase the solution concentration. The salinity of added inorganic salt exhibited obvious effect on the decrease of micropolarity and increase of microviscosity of STABS. These results suggested that these different alkyl chains showed different effects on the micellization of STABS and the salinity's effect was even bigger.     

Studies of Synthesis and Interfacial Properties of Sodium Branched‐Alkylbenzenesulfonates

Two sodium branched‐alkylbenzensulfonates with additional alkyl substituents were synthesized through a series of reactions. The interfacial tension of these alkylbenzenesulfonates between 1.0% NaCl solution and six n‐alkanes were measured. From the data of measurements the following values were calculated: critical micelle concentration (cmc), the interfacial tension at the cmc (γ_cmc), interfacial excess concentration at the cmc (Γ_m), area per molecule at the cmc (A_m). There were a minimum γ_cmc and a maximum Γ_m appeared for the same n‐alkane with increasing the hydrocarbon chain length of the oil. These indicated that the hydrocarbon chain length of oil have the important effect on adsorption and interfacial tension.     

A Study of Dynamic Interfacial Properties as Related to Foaming Properties of Sodium 2,5-dialkyl Benzene Sulfonates

In this article, foaming properties and dynamic interfacial properties of a series of sodium 2,5-dialkyl benzene sulfonates in aqueous solutions were carried out to elucidate the relationship between foaming properties and dynamic interfacial properties. The properties of foams generated from bubbling air through different surfactant solutions were measured using a modified Bikerman device. The dynamic surface tension and surface dilational elasticity were obtained from an image analysis technique based on the oscillating bubble method. The surfactants molecular adsorption at the air/water interface was introduced with Rosen empirical equation and the rate of adsorption was determined from measurements of the dynamic surface tension. The surfactant with the longest alkyl chain shows the lowest dynamic surface activity, which lead to the lowest foam volume. The short ortho straight alkyl chain has little effect on the arrangement of molecules at the interface and the foam stability changes a little with the changing of the ortho alkyl chain length. The foam stability is correlated with both the higher surface dilational elasticity and the larger surface monolayer strength.     

Separation of homologues and isomers of linear alkylbenzenesulfonates by capillary electrophoresis with sodium dodecyl sulfate,carboxylic acids and bile salts

The ability of several anionic compounds, including carboxylic and dicarboxylic acids, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), and sodium deoxycholate (SDC) and other bile salts, to separate the C(10)-C(13) homologues and the corresponding 20 positional isomers of linear alkylbenzenesulfonates (LAS) by capillary electrophoresis was studied. Up to 19 peaks and a shoulder were observed with a background electrolyte (BGE) containing 10 mM phosphate (pH 6.8), 30% acetonitrile and 40 mM SDS, and 18 peaks were obtained with a BGE containing 10 mM borate (pH 9), 40% ethanol and 40 mM palmitic acid (PA). Resolution increased with the alkyl chain length of the carboxylic acid. Dicarboxylic acids with a short alkyl chain, as azelaic acid, were useful to separate the homologues without distinguishing between the isomers. Up to 16 peaks and a shoulder were distinguished with SDC. Resolution decreased with the other bile salts. The 6-C(11)/5-C(11) isomer pair was better resolved with SDC than with SDS, and the 2-C(12) isomer was isolated using both PA and SDC, but not with SDS. Only the 7-C(13)/6-C(13) pair could not be resolved with any of the discriminating agents used.     

Volumetric and viscosity studies of interactions between sodium phosphate salts and poly(propylene glycol) 400 in aqueous solutions at different temperatures

Density and sound velocity at the 288.15–313.15 K and viscosity at the 298.15–313.15 K temperature range at 5 K intervals for polypropylene glycol (PPG) in aqueous solutions of sodium di-hydrogen phosphate, di-sodium hydrogen phosphate and tri-sodium phosphate with salt mass fractions 0.00, 0.010 and 0.020 are reported at atmospheric pressure. From the experimental density and sound velocity data, the apparent specific volume, excess specific volume, isentropic compressibility and isentropic compressibility deviation values have been determined. The infinite dilution apparent specific volume and isentropic compressibility values of PPG have been obtained and from which the infinite dilution apparent specific volumes of transfer of PPG from water to aqueous sodium phosphate solutions have been obtained for the investigated salt concentrations and temperatures. The excess specific volume, isentropic compressibility and viscosity deviation are negative and decrease in magnitude as temperature, concentration of sodium phosphate and charge on the anion of electrolyte increases.
