The aggregation behavior of fluorinated surfactant in aqueous solution was investigated using dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) simulation method. Simulation results show that fluorinated surfactants behave mainly as their hydrocarbon analogues, having similar sequences of phases and aggregate structures, which are capable of building micelle, hexagonal phase and lamellar phase. But fluorinated surfactants also show interesting differences from hydrocarbon analogues, which can easily form hexagonal and lamellar structures with comparative little curvature. They can also form ellipsoid or rod-like micelles even in very low concentrations instead of spheroid ones. The dynamic aggregation behavior of fluorinated surfactants, as well as the comparison with hydrogenated ones, was also investigated. 相似文献
A vesicle-forming chiral cationic surfactant (1R,2S)-(-)-N-dodecyl-N-methyl-ephedrinium bromide was evaluated as a pseudo-stationary phase in micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) for enantioseparation of eight non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs e.g., carprofen, flurbiprofen, fenoprofen, ibuprofen, indoprofen, ketoprofen, naproxen and suprofen by capillary electrophoresis. The effects of varying experimental conditions such as pH and concentration of surfactant in the running buffer on the enantiomer separation of the drugs are reported. A mixture of five of the above drugs was separated and each enantiomeric pair was also separated simultaneously in a single run by use of the surfactant. The strong electrostatic interactions between the analytes and the vesicles seemed to have a major role in the enantiomeric separation of the profens. 相似文献
The characterization of binary and ternary complexes of benzoate, lauryl hexaoxyethylene (C12E6) and -CD is presented. The complexation equilibrium was characterized by UV-Vis spectrophotometry, titration microcalorimetry, capillary electrophoresis, and 2D ROESY 1H-NMR. Results suggested that -CD forms one complex with C12E6in the stoichiometric ratio of -CD : C12E61.5 : 1, with a stability constant 1.3 × 105 M-1.5. The 2-D ROESY 1H-NMR spectrum indicated that C12E6is included inside the -CD cavity. The primary binding site of C12E6 is on the lauryl subunit of this molecule. Analogous to a previously reported study of -CD, the combination of -CD and C12E6precipitated from the solution. Addition of benzoate seemed to dissolve the precipitate and nearly doubled the apparent stability constant of the complex. Results from the various techniques supported formation of ternary complexes between -CD, C12E6, and benzoate. 相似文献
Unlike micelles of straight hydrocarbon chain-surfactants, isoprenoid surfactants, CH3 [CH(CH3)CH2CH2CH2]3 CH(CH3)CH2–R (R=CH2N+ (CH3)3 Br–, CH2OPO3H– Na+, CH2OSO

Na+), gave large globular and cellular assemblies in water which could be observed directly by transmission electron microscopy; critical micelle concentration of 0.31.4×10–3 M at 20°C, aggregation number of 215×104, and diameter of 200–2000 Å. A basic structure of the assemblies was a thin layer with a thickness (about 30 Å) which was close to the molecular length of the surfactants. The assemblies were decomposed during gel column chromatography; viz., they were not as stable as the liposomes of lecithins. The morphology was discussed in conjunction with a steric effect of the isoprenoid chain. 相似文献
This work is focused on the voltammetric examination of the ion exchange properties of a smectite type clay, before and after its modification by the replacement of its native interlamellar cations (Na+, K+, Ca2+) by hexadecyltrimethylammonium cations (HDTMA+). The raw clay and its organically modified form were first characterized by X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and N2 adsorption–desorption isotherms (BET method) that confirmed the modification via an intercalation process. These materials were subsequently coated onto glassy carbon surfaces, and the resulting modified electrodes were evaluated for the uptake of [Ru(NH3)6]3+ and [Fe(CN)6]3? ions used as redox probes. Some experimental parameters affecting the incorporation of the probes within the film, including the ionic strength, the surfactant loading and the solution pH are thoroughly examined, in order to highlight the mechanism of the process. The possibility of using the surfactant‐intercalated clay modified electrode as an electrochemical sensor for [Fe(CN)6]3? is also evaluated. 相似文献
Time-resolved fluorescence quenching, self-diffusion measurements and calorimetric investigations have been used in order to investigate the effect of salt on aggregation in aqueous solutions and the adsorption onto silica gel of the zwitterionic surfactant N-dodecyl betaine (NDB).
The micelle aggregation number of NDB stays constant when the NDB or salt concentration increases but decreases with an increase of temperature. Evidence is presented for the binding of cations and anions to micellar aggregates. The degree of binding has been obtained for Na+, Ca2+ and Cl− ions; it is always larger for the anion.
Enthalpies of micellization were obtained directly from calorimetric curves of NDB in dilution experiments. The observed decrease of the endothermic enthalpies of micellization with increasing temperature or salinity is attributed to a structural change in the water molecules around the alkyl chain of the free monomers.
The adsorption isotherms of NDB onto silica gel depend very little on temperature, and a plateau is reached near the CMC. At saturation, the adsorbed amount of NDB depends on the salt and follows the sequence NDB < (NDB + NaCl) < (NDB + CaCl2).
The exothermic differential molar enthalpies of adsorption demonstrate the same behaviour as the enthalpies of micellization with varying temperature or salinity. Adsorption onto silica gel depends on the NDB concentration, the salt concentration and temperature. 相似文献
