Abstract

The micellization behavior of three cationic gemini surfactants, C16H33N+(CH3)2(CH2)SN+(CH3)2C16H33, 2Br− (s = 4, 6, 10) have been studied in the presence of 1% (w/v) and 5% (w/v) polyethylene glycol-600 (PEG-600) by conductivity measurements at 300–320 K. From the conductivity data the critical micelle concentration, the degree of counterion ionization (α) and the thermodynamics of micellization ΔGom, ΔHom, ΔSom, of the gemini surfactants have been determined. The micellar parameters show a significant dependence on the spacer length and as well as amount of polymer.

Kurzfassung

Die Bildung von Mizellen der drei kationischen Gemini-Tenside C16H33N+(CH3)2(CH2)SN+(CH3)2C16H33, 2Br− (s = 4, 6, 10) in 1% (w/v)- und 5% (w/v)-Lösungen aus Polyethylenglycol-600 (PEG-600) wurde mittels Messung der Leitfähigkeit im Bereich von 300–320 K untersucht. Aus den Leitfähigkeitsmessungen wurde die kritische Mizellkonzentration (CMC), der Ionisierungsgrad (α) und die thermodynamischen Parameter der Mizellisierung ΔGom, ΔHom, ΔSom der Gemini-Tenside ermittelt. Die Parameter zeigen eine signifikante Anhängigkeit von der Länge des Spacers und von der Polymerkonzentration.
