Abstract

A trimeric sulfate-type surfactant was synthesized and the surface chemical properties and micellar behavior of this surfactant were investigated by surface tension and fluorescence measurements. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) and the surface tension at CMC both decreased with the increase of NaCl concentration. The thermodynamic parameters indicate that the micelle formation is entropy-driven. The micelle aggregation number was determined and changed little between 303 K and 313 K. All the experimental results show that the surface-active properties of the surfactant are insensitive to the temperature compared with conventional surfactants.

Kurzfassung

Ein trimeres Sulfattensid wurde synthetisiert und die Oberflächeneigenschaften und das mizellare Verhalten dieses Tensids wurden mittels Messung der Oberflächenspannung und der Fluoreszenz bestimmt. Die kritische Mizellenbildungskonzentration (CMC) und die Oberflächenspannung bei der CMC werden mit zunehmender NaCl-Konzentration reduziert. Die thermodynamischen Parameter zeigen, dass die Mizellenbildung von der Entropie gesteuert wird. Die Mizellenaggregationszahl wurde bestimmt und änderte sich zwischen 303 K und 313 K nur wenig. Alle experimentellen Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die oberflächenaktiven Eigenschaften des Tensids im Vergleich zu konventionellen Tensiden temperaturunempfindlich sind.

Key words: Trimeric surfactant; Surface-active properties; Thermodynamic properties; Micelle aggregation number
Stichwörter: Trimeres Tensid; oberflächenaktive Eigenschaften; thermodynamische Eigenschaften; Mizellenaggregationszahl
