摘要:

分子间弱相互作用热力学研究的直接实验方法就是利用量热手段测定相互作用的能量参数. 本文对TAM III-ITC 纳焦级量热计进行了电标定实验和标准反应热测量, 结果显示本量热计的精密度为±0.09%; 量热用基准物质三羟甲基氨基甲烷(Tris)与盐酸的反应热((-47.48±0.12) kJ·mol-1)与文献值一致. 采用此量热计,对典型的头-尾链型阳离子表面活性剂十二烷基三甲基溴化铵(DTAB)测量得到了与文献报导值很好吻合的临界胶束浓度(cmc)和胶束化焓, 而且对具有亲水-疏水面式刚性结构的生物表面活性剂胆酸钠(NaC)也获得了可靠的结果. 进一步地, 对于相反电荷的混合表面活性剂体系(DTAB/NaC), 分别研究了在富NaC区和富DTAB区体系混合胶束的形成. 结果说明DTAB/NaC混合表面活性剂体系在富NaC区有较强的协同效应, 而在富DTAB区的协同效应较弱. 本文结合电导率测定结果, 对DTAB/NaC混合体系在水溶液中的分子自组装热力学行为进行了有价值的讨论.

Abstract:

Calorimetry is a direct experimental method that can be used to study the thermodynamics of weak interactions between surfactant molecules, allowing the energetic parameters of such interactions to be obtained. In this work, a nano-isothermal titration calorimeter with a thermostat (TAM III) was used to evaluate the thermodynamic behavior of molecular self-assemblies of single and mixed surfactants in aqueous solution. Electrical calibration of this instrument showed that its precision is better than ±0.09%. The accuracy of the system was tested by measuring the reaction heat of tris-hydroxymethylaminomethane (Tris), employed often as a calorimetric standard substance, with hydrochloric acid. The resulting value ((-47.48±0.12) kJ·mol-1) agreed well with that in the literature. We then determined the critical micelle concentration (cmc) and enthalpy of micellization for dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) with a“head-and-tail”structure, which were consistent with reported values, as well as reliable results for sodium cholate (NaC) with a rigid steroid skeleton composed of hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces. Furthermore, for the mixed system of oppositely charged surfactants (DTAB/NaC), the mixed cmc and enthalpy of mixed micellization were also obtained in NaC- and DTAB-rich regions. A stronger synergistic effect was observed between the two types of surfactants in the NaC-rich region than in the DTAB-rich one. Conductivity measurements allowed the thermodynamic behavior of the mixed system (DTAB/NaC) to be discussed in detail.
