Abstract:
The mixed micellization of quaternary ammonium gemini surfactants C-12-s-C-12.2Br (s = 2,3, 4, 6) and alcohols (n-propanol, n-butanol, n-pentanol and n-hexanol) in aqueous solutions has been investigated at different temperatures by using conductivity measurements. The, results show that the critical micelle concentration (In (cmc)) gradually increases with increasing temperature. The thermodynamic parameters calculated by phase separation model indicate that the mixed micellization Of C-12-s-C-12.2Br and alcohol is an entropy-driven process. The entropy-driven is enhanced as temperature is going up. All plots of enthalpy-entropy compensation exhibit an excellent linearity. At a fixed temperature, DeltaG(m)(theta) is decreased and the micelle stability is enhanced with increasing the carbon atom number(n) in the alkyl chain of alcohol molecule. However, these properties have an opposite trend with increasing s.
