Abstract

A new kind of surfactants with chelating properties named N-acylethylenediamine triacetate (N-acyl ED3A) of different hydrocarbon chain lengths were synthesized from anhydrous ethylene diamine, fatty acid chlorides (Capryloyl, lauroyl, myristoyl, palmitoyl, stearoyl or oleoyl chloride) and chloroacetic acid. The chemical structures of the prepared compounds were confirmed using different spectroscopic techniques, primarily Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance. The surface properties including surface and interfacial tension, foaming height, emulsification power, calcium ion stability, stability to hydrolysis and critical micelle concentration (CMC) were determined. The trisodium N-acylethylenediamine triacetates have been found to combine the properties of strong surfactancy, extreme mildness with a high tolerance to water hardness, and ability to chelate metal ions, which indicates a promising application prospect in many fields.

Kurzfassung

Ein neuer Typ von Tensiden mit komlexbildenden Eigenschaften, N-Acylethylendiamintriacetat (N-acyl-ED3A) mit unterschiedlichen Kohlenwasserstoffkettenlängen, wurde aus wasserfreiem Ethylendiamin, Fettsäurechloriden (Capryloyl-, Lauroyl-, Myristoyl-, Palmitoyl-, Stearoyl-, Oleoylchlorid) und Chloressigsäure synthetisiert. Die chemische Struktur der hergestellten Verbindungen wurde mit verschiedenen spektroskopischen Verfahren wie Fourier-Transform-Spektroskopie und Kernmagnetische Resonanz untersucht. Es wurden die Oberflächeneigenschaften bestimmt wie Oberflächen- und Grenzflächenspannung, Schaumhöhe, Emulgierfähigkeit, Calciumionenstabilität, Hydrolysestabilität und kritisches Mizellbildungskonzentration (CMC). Die Tri-Natriumacylethylendiamintriacetate besitzen starke tensidische Eigenschaften, sind extrem mild, haben eine hohe Wasserhärtetoleranz und können Metallionen komplexieren, was auf eine vielversprechende Anwendung und unterschiedlichen Feldern hindeutet.
