Wetting and adsorption: II. Adsorption of Triton X-100 and Triton X-305 onto carbon black from water and cyclohexane solutions

The adsorption isotherms of nonionic surfactants Triton X-100 and Triton X-305 from water and cyclohexane on carbon black have been determined at 15 and 30°C. The Langmuir-type and BET-type isotherms are obtained for adsorption of Triton X-100 and Triton X-305 from water and cyclohexane respectively. Both the contact angles of water for graphite/water/air and graphite/water/cyclohexane decrease monotonously with increasing surfactant concentration. From these results, it is proposed that the adsorption of Triton X-100 and Triton X-305 on carbon black or graphite from water is monolayer. For the adsorption from cyclohexane solutions, the ethyleneoxide group of the surfactant molecules may be adsorbed onto the polar spot at the surface of carbon black, and the hydrophobic group of adsorbed molecules may direct toward the liquid phase or attaches to the nonpolar surface region around the polar spot. As the concentration increases, the ethylene oxide groups of the adsorbed molecules can be aggregated with each other via polar interactions to form hemi-reversed micelle.

Phase separation in non-ionic surfactant Triton X-100 solutions in the presence of phenol

The influence of concentration conditions and acidity on the phase separation in non-ionic surfactants Triton X-100 solutions in the presence of phenol was investigated. It was shown that the addition of small amounts of phenol results in the decrease of the cloud point temperature of Triton X-100 solutions. On the other hand, the addition of phenol into the investigated system resulted in the decrease of the hydration values of surfactant-rich phases and the increase of their hydrophobicity. The extraction degree and distribution coefficient of phenol between the water and the surfactant-rich phases were studied. On the basis of data obtained the molar parts of water, phenol and Triton X-100 in the non-ionic surfactant-rich phases formed at different concentration conditions were calculated. Possibilities of the application of phenol-induced micellar extraction for microcomponents preconcentration were estimated.     

Spectrophotometric determination of iron as phenylfluorone complex sensitized with Triton X-100

Summary The effect of some surfactants and protective colloids on the absorbance of the iron(III)-phenylfluorone complex has been investigated. The binary complex formed at pH 9.0 show a molar absorptivity of 7.5×10⁴ l · mol^–1 · cm^–1 at 530 nm. In the presence of 2% Triton X-100, at the same pH, the molar absorptivity of the sensitized complex was 1.19×10⁵ l · mo^–1 · cm^–1 at 555 nm. Full colour development of the sensitized complex occurred within 25 min and Beer's law was followed up to 0.53 ppm of iron. The molar ratio and continuous variation methods indicated a 13 metal-ligand ratio for the sensitized complex. The effect of various amounts of different ions has been studied under the experimental conditions and some masking agents were recommended. The method has been applied to the determination of iron in copper and nickel metals and some non-ferrous alloys.

Synthesis of fluorescent alkoxybenzylidene derivatives of malononitrile dimer in water in the presence of Triton X-100

An efficient procedure has been developed for the synthesis of alkoxybenzylidene derivatives of malononitrile dimer in water in the presence of nonionic surfactant (Triton X-100).

Capillary electrochromatography of Triton X-100

Nonionic surfactants such as Triton X-100 (TX-100) are comprised of a mixture of oligomers with a varying degree of length in the ethoxylate chain. The development of chromatographic methods for resolution of the various oligomers of TX-100 is of environmental importance, and can be useful for quality control and characterization in industrial manufacture. Capillary electrochromatography (CEC) is fast becoming a capable separation technique that combines the benefits of both high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and capillary electrophoresis (CE). This report presents a novel CEC method for separation of the various TX-100 oligomers. A comparison of monomeric vs. polymeric stationary phases for separation of TX-100 was conducted. Since the oligomers of TX-100 were better resolved on a monomeric phase as compared to polymeric phase, a systematic mobile phase tuning was performed utilizing a monomeric CEC-C18-3 microm-100 A stationary phase. Various mobile phase parameters such as acetonitrile (ACN) content, Tris concentration, pH, voltage, and temperature were manipulated in order to achieve the optimum separation of oligomers in less than 30 min.     

Spectrophotometric determination of zinc with hydrazidazol in the presence of Triton X-100 and its application in metal analysis

A new spectrophotometric method for the determination of zinc is proposed. The chromogenic agent Hydrazidazol forms a 1:1 chelate with zinc in the presence of Triton X-100 in a medium containing 20-40% ethanol. The molar absorptivity and conditional formation constant have been found to be 2.7 x 1O(4) l.mole(-1).cm(-1) (at 640 nm) and 10(5.32) respectively. Beer's law is obeyed for zinc over the range of 0.2-0.8 mug/ml with a standard deviation of 0.024 mug/ml. The method can be applied to the determination of zinc in cadmium metal and its oxide after preconcentration by selective extraction of zinc thiocyanate into ethyl acetate in the presence of EDTA and thiosulphate as masking agents.     

Spectrofotometric determination of copper in sugar cane spirit using biquinoline in the presence of ethanol and Triton X-100

The present paper proposes a method for molecular spectrophotometric determination of copper in sugar cane spirits. The copper(I) reacts with biquinoline forming a pink complex with maximum absorption at 545 nm. The reaction occurs in the presence of hydroxylamine, ethanol and Triton X-100 tensioative. Determination of copper is possible in a linear range 0.2-20.0 mgL(-1) with a detection limit 0.05 mgL(-1). The great advantages of the proposed methodology are the elimination of liquid-liquid extraction step and the use of toxic organics solvents, like dioxane, to dissolve the reagent.     

Small Variations in the Composition and Properties of Triton X-100

Two samples of Triton X-100 (TX100) were compared. The "old sample," manufactured by Rohm and Haas, has a mean degree of ethoxylation of 10.1. The "new sample," manufactured by Union Carbide, has a mean degree of ethoxylation of 9.6. The cmc values near room temperature (23 degrees C, old sample; 24.6 degrees C, new sample), as determined from surface tension measurements, are similar. Dynamic light scattering measurements on the new sample gave hydrodynamic radii at different temperatures in reasonable accord with those reported a number of years ago. In contrast, time-resolved fluorescence quenching (TRFQ) experiments using a pyrene-labeled triglyceride as a probe gave aggregation numbers N(agg) near room temperature that were similar to those determined previously by light scattering; however, the N(agg) of the new sample was larger, and the difference was outside of experimental error to one standard deviation. More troubling was that the TRFQ experiment failed to give meaningful results on solutions exposed to air, as in the case of the older TX100 sample. To get useful data by TRFQ measurements, one had to first remove oxygen from the solution. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.     

Gamma-radiolysis of Triton X-100 aqueous solution

The decomposition of the non-ionic surfactant Triton X-100 in gamma-irradiated deaerated aqueous solution is mainly attributed to the attack of OH radicals and H atoms. The mechanisms of these reactions were investigated in detail, including the influence of pH and dose rate. The RCHOH radicals formed by OH attack on alcohol molecules can decompose the surfactant in aqueous solution.     

Positronium formation in aqueous Triton X-100 solution

The influence of micelles, formed by the aggregation of nonionic surfactant molecules, on positronium formation (combination of e⁻ and e⁺) probability is discussed in the light of radiation chemical phenomenon at the end part of the radiation track. The contribution due to the parapositronium/narrow-component intensity in the presence of micellar aggregation and further structural reorganization constitutes important aspects of the ortho-para conversion process.

Influences of Triton X-100 on Hemoglobin Behaviors in Hemoglobin/Acyclovir/Triton X-100/H2O System

The influences of Triton X-100 on hemoglobin （Hb） behaviors were studied by the methods of UV-Vis spectrum, fluorescence spectrum, HPLC, conductivity, zeta potential and negative-staining transmission electron microscope in Hb/acyclovir/Triton X-100/H2O system. With the increase of Triton X-100 concentration in the system, the percentage of the free acyclovir increased from 58%--63% to 90%--94%. The static quenching constant and the association number of acyclovir to Hb decreased. The fluorescence spectrum, conductivity, zeta potential, fluorescence polarization and negative-staining morphology of Hb tended to recover to those of the original state of Hb in the same concentration of Hb. The interaction between Triton X-100 and Hb is stronger than that between acyclovir and Hb. Most Triton-X-100 was associated with Hb at low Triton X-100 concentration. But the interaction of Triton X-100 with Hb was apparently dominant in high Triton X-100 concentration. The Hb structure was unfolded and finally denatured.     

Determination of nucleic acids by near-infrared fluorescence quenching of hydrophobic thiacyanine dye in the presence of Triton X-100.

A near-infrared (near-IR) fluorescence quenching method was developed for the determination of nucleic acids in aqueous solution by using a cationic heptamethylene thiacyanine as a probe. The near-IR cationic cyanine showed maximum excitation and emission wavelengths at 800 and 825 nm, respectively, in the presence of Triton X-100; the fluorescence of the cyanine could be greatly quenched by DNA. The calibration graphs were linear over the range of 10-400 ng/mL for CT (calf thymus) DNA and over the range 5-400 ng/mL for FS (fish sperm) DNA under optimal conditions. The corresponding detection limits were 5.2 ng/mL for CT DNA and 2.5 ng/mL for FS DNA. The relative standard deviation (n = 8) was 3.1% for 75 ng/mL CT DNA and 2.2% for 75 ng/mL FS DNA, respectively. Preliminary research showed that the fluorescence quenching might be ascribed to the formation of dye aggregate facilitated by DNA.

A Photochemical Study of Uranyl Ion Interaction with the Triton X-100 Micellar System

This is a report on the spectroscopic characteristics of UO²⁺₂in the excited state in Triton X-100 micellar medium. It also indicates some important results of viscosity and surface tension measurements of the system which have direct relevance to the spectroscopic investigation in the excited state. The quenching of the UO²⁺₂fluorescence due to Triton X-100, upon micellization in the aqueous medium, reveals two kinds of microenvironments of the fluorophore from the Stern–Volmer plot. This has been verified by flash photolytic measurements. A blue shift of the quenched emission spectrum is ascribed to the collisional encounter of UO²⁺₂with the head groups of Triton X-100.     

Fluorescence quenching method for the determination of sodium dodecyl sulphate with near-infrared hydrophobic dye in the presence of Triton X-100

A fluorophotometric method for the determination of anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) was proposed. The method is based on the quenching effect of SDS on the fluorescence of near-infrared (NIR) hydrophobic dye, 2-[4'chloro-7'(3'hexadecyl-2'benzothiazolinylidene)-3',5'-(1',3'-propanediyl)-1',3',5'-heptatriene-1'-yl]-3-ethylbenzothiazolium iodide (dye I) in the presence of Triton X-100. The calibration graph is linear in the concentration range from 0 to 2 x 10(-6) mol L(-1) of SDS with a detection limit (LOD) of 8.3 x 10(-8) mol L(-1). The relative standard deviation for the determination of 7 x 10(-7) mol L(-1) SDS was 4.1%. Recoveries of 95.3-110.3% were found for the addition to 1.0 x 10(-6) mol L(-1) SDS in the analysis of environmental water samples. Preliminary research shows that the fluorescence quenching is due to the formation of dye aggregate facilitated by SDS.

Oxygen effect in the radiolysis of Triton X-100 aqueous solution

Experiments with Triton X-100 as a model surfactant were performed under steadystate conditions, using deoxygenated solutions as well as those saturated with N₂O, O₂ or N₂O/O₂ mixtures. The Triton X-100 decomposition yield was dependent on the O₂ content of the irradiated system. Oxygen promoted surfactant decomposition in aqueous solution containing only Triton X-100.
