Abstract

A series of nonionic surfactants containing different chains of polyethylene oxide monomethyl ether [–O(CH2CH2O)xCH3, x = 7, 12, 16, 44 and 112] based on castor oil were synthesized. Their structures were confirmed using FTIR, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectra. Structural effects of the synthesized surfactants on surface tension (γ), critical micelle concentration (cmc) and hydrophile lipophile balance (HLB) were investigated. The effect of structural features on their surface behavior is analyzed through changes in surface properties, including effectiveness (πcmc) and efficiency (PC20) of adsorption, the surface excess concentration (Γmax) and the area per surfactant molecule at the air/water interface at surface saturation (Amin). Thermodynamic properties, adsorption and micellezation of the prepared surfactant in addition to their biodegradability were investigated.

Kurzfassung

Eine Reihe auf Castoröl basierender nichtionischer Tenside wurde synthetisiert, die verschiedene Ketten aus Polyethylenoxidmonomethylether [–O(CH2CH2O)xCH3, x = 7, 12, 16, 44 and 112] enthalten. Ihr Aufbau wurde durch FTIR-, 1H-NMR- und 13C-NMR-Spektren bestätigt. Die konstruktiven Einflüsse der synthetisierten Tenside auf die Oberflächenspannung (γ), kritische Mizellbildungskonzentration (cmc) und Hydrophil-Lipophil-Balance (HLB) wurden untersucht. Der Einfluss der konstruktiven Eigenschaften auf das Oberflächenverhalten ist durch die Änderungen der Oberflächeneigenschaften analysiert, einschließlich Effektivität (πcmc) und Adsorptionswirkung (PC20), Oberflächenüberschusskonzentration (Γmax) und Fläche pro Tensidmolekül an der Luft-/Wasser-Grenzfläche bei Oberflächensättigung (Amin). Die thermodynamischen Eigenschaften, Adsorption und Mizellierung der dargestellten Tenside sowie deren biologische Abbaubarkeit wurden untersucht.
