Abstract

Surface properties of binary surfactant systems of N-lauroyl sarcosinate (LS) with fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether (AEO9), dodecyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (DTAC) and dodecyl dimethyl betaine (BS-12) have been investigated in aqueous NaCl (0.1 mol · L−1) solution at (298 ± 0.1) K, respectively. Synergistic parameters of the two components in both mixed micelles and mixed adsorption layers were obtained by calculations. Furthermore, we applied the regular solution theory on the mixed systems when synergism in mixed micelle formation, surface tension reduction efficiency and surface tension effectiveness was researched. The results show that there are synergistic effects in the mixed systems, the surface performances of the mixtures are significantly better than that of any single component in the mixed systems. The result coincides with the relevant theories of the ability of mixed micelle formation, surface tension reduction efficiency and surface tension reduction effectiveness.

Kurzfassung

Die Oberflächeneigenschaften binärer Tensidsysteme aus N-Lauroylsarcosinat (LS) mit Fettalkoholpolyoxyethylenether (AEO9), Dodecyltrimethylammoniumchlorid (DTAC) und Dodecyldimethylbetain (BS-12) wurden in wässriger 0,1 mol · L−1 NaCl-Lösung bei (298 ± 0,1) K untersucht. Die synergistischen Parameter der beiden Komponenten sowohl in den Mischmizellen als auch in den Mischadsorptionsschichten wurden berechnet. Darüber hinaus wandten wir die reguläre Lösungstheorie auf die Mischsysteme an, wenn der Synergismus bei der Bildung von Mischmizellen, die Verringerung der Oberflächenspannung und die Oberflächenspannung untersucht wurden. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass synergistische Effekte in den Mischsystemen vorliegen und die Oberflächenleistungen der Mischsysteme signifikant besser sind als die jeder einzelnen Komponente in den Mischsystemen. Das Ergebnis stimmt mit den relevanten Theorien über die Fähigkeit der Mischmizellenbildung, die Verringerung der Oberflächenspannung und die Wirksamkeit der Verringerung der Oberflächenspannung überein.
