Abstract

The phase behavior and solubilization of two microemulsion systems 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide (CnmimBr, n = 12,14,16)/butyric acid/hexane/brine (5% NaCl) and CnmimBr/1-butanol/hexane/brine (5% NaCl) were studied and compared. The physico-chemical parameters, such as the solubility (∊B) of the cosurfactant, the mass fraction of the cosurfactant in the interfacial layer (AS), and the solubilization ability (SP*) of the two microemulsion systems were calculated and discussed. As the carbon chain length of CnmimBr molecules increases, SP* increases, and the difference of SP* values between the two microemulsion systems is reduced. The effects of aqueous and oleic phases and temperatures on the phase behavior and solubilization of C14mimBr/butyric acid/alkane/aqueous phase microemulsion systems were also discussed.

Kurzfassung

Das Phasenverhalten und die Solubilisierung von zwei Mikroemulsionen bestehend aus 1-Alkyl-3-methylimidazoliumbromid (CnmimBr, n = 12, 14, 16)/Butansäure/Hexan/wässrige Salzlösung (5% NaCl) und CnmimBr/1-Butanol/Hexan/wässrige Salzlösung (5% NaCl) wurden studiert und miteinander verglichen. Die physikalisch-chemischen Parameter, wie die Löslichkeit des Co-Tensids (∊B), der Massenbruch des Co-Tensids in der Grenzfläche (AS) und die Lösefähigkeit (SP*) der beiden Mikroemulsionen wurden bestimmt und diskutiert. Mit zunehmender Kohlenstoffkettenlänge des CnmimBr-Moleküls, nimmt SP* zu und die Differenz zwischen den SP*-Werten der beiden Mikroemulsionen verringert sich. Der Einfluss der wässrigen und öligen Phase und der der Temperatur auf das Phasenverhalten und die Solubilisierung von Mikroemulsionen des Typs C14mimBr/Butansäure/Alkan/wässrige Phase wurden ebenfalls diskutiert.
