Abstract:

The demonized water was added to the alkali metal salts of 2-ethythexyl phosphonic acid mono 2-ethylhexyl ester (HA) to form microemulsion of W/O type. The maximum contents of H2O in these systems reached up to the mole ratio (H2O/MA+HA) of 6.5(Li), 12 (Na) and 66 (K), respectively. They are stable when the temperature is lower than 65℃ and no water separation was observed in the ultracentrifuge under 30000r?min-1. Their electrical conductance and infrared spectra in the range of 800-4000cm-1 were studied. The variation of stretching absorption peaks of P=O, P-O-C and P-O-H and their oscillator strengths with the amount of H2O added have been recorded.

Key words: Microemulsion, 2-Ethylhexylphosphonic acid mono2-ethylhexyl ester, Saponification, Subtraction spectrum, Hydration, FT-IR
