Abstract:

The interactions between C8H17(OC2H4)nSO4Na (C8EnS; n=0, 1, 3) and C8H17NC6H5Br(C8Py), C8EnS and CmH2m+2NC5H5Br (CmPy; m=10, 12, 14, 16), t-C8H17C6H4(OC2H4)9.8SO4Na (C8φE9.8S) and CmPy in micelles have been studied by surface tension method. The partial ternary "phase diagram" of C8EnS-C8Py-H2O and C8EnS-C12Py-H2O systems have been obtained. The results show that with the increase of n, the interaction between C8EnS and C8Py decreases and the stability of aqueous solution of C8EnS-C8Py increases. With the increase of m, the interaction between C8E3S and CmPy increases and the stability of aqueous solution of C8E3S-CmPy decreases. The interaction between C8φE9.8S and CmPy is strong while the aqueous solution of C8φE9.8S- CmPy is still very stable.
