Mixed Micellization of Dimeric (Gemini) Surfactants and Conventional Surfactants

The aqueous solutions of mixtures of various conventional surfactants and dimeric anionic and cationic surfactants have been investigated by electrical conductivity, spectrofluorometry, and time-resolved fluorescence quenching to determine the critical micelle concentrations and the micelle aggregation numbers in these mixtures. The following systems have been investigated: 12-2-12/DTAB, 12-2-12/C(12)E(6), 12-2-12/C(12)E(8), 12-3-12/C(12)E(8), Dim3/C(12)E(8), and Dim4/C(12)E(8) (12-2-12 and 12-3-12=dimethylene-1,2- and trimethylene-1,3-bis(dodecyldimethylammonium bromide), respectively; C(12)E(6) and C(12)E(8)=hexa- and octaethyleneglycol monododecylethers, respectively; Dim3 and Dim4=anionic dimeric surfactants of the disodium sulfonate type, Scheme 1; DTAB=dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide). For the sake of comparison the conventional surfactant mixtures DTAB/C(12)E(8) and SDS/C(12)E(8) (SDS=sodium dodecylsulfate) have also been investigated (reference systems). Synergism in micelle formation (presence of a minimum in the cmc vs composition plot) has been observed for the Dim4/C(12)E(8) mixture but not for other dimeric surfactant/nonionic surfactant mixtures investigated. The aggregation numbers of the mixed reference systems DTAB/C(12)E(8) and SDS/C(12)E(8) vary monotonously with composition from the value of the aggregation number of the pure C(12)E(8) to that of the pure ionic component. In contrast, the aggregation number of the dimeric surfactant/C(12)E(8) mixtures goes through a minimum at a low value of the dimeric surfactant mole fraction. This minimum does not appear to be correlated to the existence of synergism in micelle formation. The initial decrease of the aggregation number of the nonionic surfactant upon addition of ionic surfactant, up to a mole fraction of ionic surfactant of about 0.2 (in equivalent per total equivalent), depends little on the nature the surfactant, whether conventional or dimeric. The results also show that the microviscosity of the systems containing dimeric surfactants is larger than that of the reference systems. Copyright 2001 Academic Press.

Micellization and Effect of Salt Behavior on Meristyl Alcohol Based Bis-Sulfosuccinate Gemini Surfactants in Aqueous Solutions

A series of bis-sulfosuccinate anionic gemini surfactants were synthesized from meristyl alcohol (BSGSMA_1,4; BSGSMA_1,6, and BSGSMA_1,8) containing 4, 6, and 8 methylene chains as different flexible spacer lengths. The chemical structures of synthesized geminis were confirmed by using spectroscopic analytical techniques, viz., elemental analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy(NMR). Investigations were carried out to examine the effect of different spacer length and different salts (organic and inorganic) on surface and fluorescence properties of prepared gemini surfactants. The results of surface properties shown that surface tension at CMC (?_CMC) and critical micelle concentration (CMC) were reduced and pC₂₀ value was enhanced with increased spacer length. Fluorescence investigations were also revealed the significance of longer spacer with the concluded remarks of higher aggregation number and reduced micropolarity for BSGSMA_1,8 having elongated flexible spacer. The results of salts studies had shown the better results for organic salts as compared to inorganic salts.     

阳离子和两性表面活性剂在聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯表面的吸附行为

利用座滴法研究了阳离子表面活性剂十六烷基醚羟丙基季铵盐(C₁₆PC)、十六烷基聚氧乙烯醚羟丙基季铵盐(C₁₆(EO)₃PC)和两性离子表面活性剂十六烷基醚羟丙基羧酸甜菜碱(C₁₆PB)、十六烷基聚氧乙烯醚羟丙基羧酸甜菜碱(C₁₆(EO)₃PB)溶液在聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯(PMMA)表面上的润湿性质, 考察了表面活性剂类型及浓度对接触角的影响趋势. 研究发现: 低浓度条件下表面活性剂分子可能以平躺的方式吸附到固体界面, 且亲水基团靠近固体界面, PMMA表面被轻微疏水化; 在高浓度时则通过Lifshitz-van der Waals 作用吸附, 亲水基团在外, PMMA表面被亲水改性. 聚氧乙烯基团(EO基团)的引入对阳离子表面活性剂的接触角影响不大; 而含有聚氧乙烯基团的两性离子表面活性剂在PMMA界面上以类似半胶束的聚集体吸附, 大幅度降低接触角.     

Phase Behavior in Mixtures of Cationic Dimeric and Anionic Monomeric Surfactants

The formation of mixed aggregates has been investigated in the mixture of oppositely charged surfactants vastly differing in molecular geometry and size. The systems considered is mixture of the cationic gemini surfactant, ethanediyl-1,2-bis(dodecyldimethylammonium bromide), and anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate. Various mixed nano- and microaggregates (micelles, vesicles, thin lamellar sheets, and tubules) were formed depending on bulk composition and total surfactant concentration. Two types of aggregates were found in precipitate, the tubules as prevailing aggregates on the gemini-rich side, and vesicles as prevailing aggregates on the SDS-rich side. The tubules formation was ascribed to mutual influence of specific structure of cationic dimeric surfactant and electrostatic interactions at the bilayer/solution interface. The proposed mechanism involved the formation of lamellar sheets, which rolled-up into tubules.     

水溶液中两亲药物盐酸异丙嗪-表面活性剂体系的胶束化行为

The behavior of the mixed amphiphilic drug promethazine hydrochloride(PMT) and cationic as well as nonionic surfactants was studied by tensiometry.The cmc values of the PMT-surfactant systems decrease at a surfactant mole fraction of 0.1 and it then becomes constant.The critical micelle concentration(cmc) values are lower than the ideal cmc(cmc*) values for PMT/TX-100,PMT/TX-114,PMT/Tween 20,and PMT/Tween 60 systems.For the PMT/Tween 40,PMT/Tween 80,PMT/CPC,and PMT/CPB systems the cmc values are close to the cmc* values.This indicates that PMT forms mixed micelles with these surfactants by attractive interactions.The surface excess(Γmax) decreases in the presence of surfactants.The rigid structure of the drug makes adsorption easier and the contribution of the surfactant at the interface decreases.The interaction parameters βm(for the mixed micelles) and βσ(for the mixed monolayer) are negative indicating attraction among the mixed components.     

Fluorescence Investigation of the Binding of Model PDT Drugs to Nonionic and Zwitterionic Surfactants

The binding of two model photodynamic therapy drugs, chlorin p ₆ and purpurin 18, with surfactants has been studied using steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence techniques. The surfactants used are amphiphilic nonionic surfactant (Tween 80 and Tween 40) and zwitterionic surfactant (HAPS). These have applications in drug delivery. The studies have been performed at pH 7 and 5 for chlorin p ₆ and at pH 7 for purpurin 18. The binding constants have been estimated from the change in fluorescence parameters and have been compared with those for Cremophor EL and human serum albumin. Chlorin p ₆ is found to bind to the surfactants to a greater extent at pH 5 than at pH 7. The same ionic species of chlorin p ₆ is found to exist at the maximum concentrations of the surfactants.

两亲无规聚合物的聚集行为及其与非离子表面活性剂的相互作用

以2-丙烯酰胺基-十二烷基磺酸(AMC12S)与2-丙烯酰胺基-2-甲基丙磺酸(AMPS)进行无规共聚,合成了含AMC12S摩尔分数(X)较高(X=0.1,0.3,0.5)的一系列两亲聚合物.采用稳态荧光及动态光散射技术对聚合物在水溶液中的聚集行为及其与三种非离子表面活性剂(HO(CH2CH2O)10C12H25(C12E10)、HO(CH2CH2O)20C12H25(C12E20)和HO(CH2CH2O)40C12H25(C12E40))的相互作用进行了研究,并考察了X对聚集行为的影响以及表面活性剂亲水基团长度对相互作用的影响.随着X的增大,聚合物的临界聚集浓度(CAC)明显减小,X=0.5时聚合物的CAC低达0.0039g·L-1.聚集体的流体力学半径(Rh)都大于26nm,并随着聚合物浓度的升高而增大,说明聚合物分子主要以分子间的聚集方式聚集,形成多分子聚集体.随X的增大,聚集体Rh减小,同时Rh随聚合物浓度升高而增大的幅度减小,说明聚集体结构变得更加紧实.表面活性剂与聚合物之间存在很强的相互作用,在混合溶液中表面活性剂浓度达到临界胶束浓度(CMC)左右时聚合物聚集体开始解离,形成混合聚集体.亲水基团长度增长,表面活性剂对聚合物聚集体的解离能力随之增强.C12E40与X=0.5的聚合物形成的混合聚集体Rh为6.8nm,与C12E40自身形成的聚集体尺寸相当.

Effect of Oxyethylete Units on Adsorption and Micellization Properties of Novel Benzene Sulfonate Surfactants

The surface tension and fluorescence spectra of sodium octyl-[ω-octyloxy-poly(oxyethylene)]-yl-benzene sulfonates (APE_nBS) aqueous solutions have been investigated by Wilhelmy plate method and intrinsic probe methods, respectively to study the effect of EO units on their properties. It was discovered that the surface performance of these surfactants was greatly outstanding: the values of critical micelle concentration (CMC) reached to be of the order of magnitude of 10^?5 mol/L, the values of surface tension at CMC, γ_CMC, were between 25.79 to 31.02 mN/m, and the effectiveness and efficiency of surface tension reduction were excellent. The introduction of oxyethylene units to the surfactant molecule evidently improved the solubility of APE_nBS. With the increase in EO units, the CMC slightly changed after the first decreased. On the other hand, the surface excess concentration at saturation, Γ _max, decreased after the first increased and γ_CMC increased after the first decreased accordingly. The CMC determined by fluorescence spectra of intrinsic probe method were accorded with the CMC measured by surface tension method. The aggregation number N, characterized by quenching the fluorescence spectra with methyl viologen (MV²⁺) as the extrinsic quencher, gradually decreased first (from 0 to1) and then slightly changed (from 1 to 4) with increasing EO chain length. So we concluded that the appropriate number of EO units was the key factor to get the best physicochemical properties of APE_nBS.

Effects of Metal Ions on the Micellization of Ionic Surfactants

The effect of metal ions (Cu(II), Zn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), La(III), Fe(III)) on the critical micelle concentration (CMC) of ionic surfactants (sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)) were investigated at 25±0.1°C, μ = 0.1 M (KNO₃), using conductivity method in this paper. A series of general empirical expressions about the relationship between the CMC values for SDS and CTAB and the concentrations of metal ions have been derived. The results showed that the CMC values for both SDS and CTAB decreased with increasing the concentrations of metal ions. This can be interpreted by the counterion effect and the entropy driving effect.     

光敏感双亲性梳状SMA聚合物的合成及其胶束化

分别采用改进的Ross-Miles法及分水时间法,对3种新型孪尾Gemini两性离子表面活性剂(C8C8L3Sz、C8C8L4Sz和C10C8L3Sz)的泡沫性能及乳化性能进行了研究,并考察了表面活性剂浓度、分子结构和温度等对其的影响。 结果表明,该系列表面活性剂具有较好的泡沫性能,且随其浓度的增加,泡沫最大高度和半衰期均存在一个稳定值,疏水链越长,其起泡性能越差,泡沫稳定性越好;温度升高,起泡性能变好,泡沫稳定性变差;当表面活性剂浓度一定时,体系中加入低浓度的短链醇及无机盐均能提高泡沫的稳定性;C8C8L3Sz、C8C8L4Sz和C10C8L3Sz作乳化剂的最适宜的用量分别为6×10-4、6×10-4和4×10-4 mol/L,疏水基越长,乳化性能越好,而连接基对其影响较小;温度升高,乳化性能变差;当油相烷烃碳数相同时,环烷烃要比直连烷烃更易达到最佳乳化效果,但二者的乳状液稳定时间相当;对于油相烷烃碳数不同时,烷烃的碳链越长,乳状液的稳定性越差,乳化效果越不好。     

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.
