Abstract
The high amount of surfactant needed to formulate a bicontinuous microemulsion is a limiting factor for industrial usage of these systems. Commercially available triblock copolymers can be obtained in high amounts. Here, we show the influence of size and composition of different poly(ethyleneoxide)-poly(propyleneoxide)-poly(ethyleneoxide) triblock copolymer surfactants (Pluronics) on a technical grade sugar surfactant microemulsion. The so-called efficiency boosting can also be realized in such technical grade systems. The resulting efficiency boosting is studied systematically with regard to the impact of the polymer size and the composition of the system.
Kurzfassung
Häufig steht der industriellen Nutzung von Mikroemulsionen der hohe Bedarf an Tensid im Wege, der zur Ausbildung stabiler bikontinuierlicher Mikroemulsionen notwendig ist. Kommerziell erhältliche Triblockcopolymere stehen in großen Mengen zur Verfügung. In dieser Arbeit wird der Einfluss verschiedener Pluronic Triblockcopolymere auf das Phasenverhalten einer auf technischen Zuckertensiden basierenden Mikroemulsion gezeigt. In solchen technischen Systemen kann eine sog. Effizienzsteigerung erzielt werden. Die auftretende Effizienzsteigerung der Tenside wird systematisch auf den Einfluss der Polymergröße und Zusammensetzung des Systems hin untersucht.
