Thermodynamic studies of octyltrimethylammonium chloride in water
Densities, heat capacities, enthalpies of dilution at 298 K and osmotic coefficients at 310 K of octyltrimethylammonium chloride were measured as functions of concentration. From the experimental data, the partial molar volumes, heat capacities, relative enthalpies, nonideal free energies and entropies at 298 K were derived as functions of concentration. A comparison between the above data and those of dodecyltrimethylammonium chloride reported in the literature shows that the increase of the alkyl chain length shifts the apparent molar volumevs. concentration curves towards greater values and the heat capacity, relative enthalpy and free energyvs. concentration curves towards smaller value…
Energetics of sodium dodecylsulfate-dodecyldimethylamine oxide mixed micelle formation
Enthalpies of dilution and osmotic coefficients of the sodium dodecyl-sulfate (NaDS)-dodecyldimethylamine oxide (DDAO) mixtures in water have been measured at 25 and 37°C, respectively. From the enthalpies of dilution the apparent molar relative enthalpies LΦ were calculated. The change of the LΦ vs. total molality mt profiles with the mole fraction reflects the variation of the ionic character of the mixed micelles. From the osmotic coefficients the nonideal free energy G2ni were calculated. By combining G2ni with the partial molar relative enthalpies, the nonideal entropies TS2ni were determined. At a given mole fraction, G2ni and TS2ni values are decreasing and increasing respectively, t…
Thermodynamic properties of water-β-cyclodextrin-dodecylsurfactant ternary systems
Densities, heat capacities and conductivities of water-surfactant-β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) ternary systems were determined at 25°C. The surfactants studied were sodium dodecylsulfate (NaDS) and dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB). From conductivity data, apparent critical micelle concentrations (cmc*) and degree of ionization of micelles were obtained at a fixed β-CD concentration (mCD). From the cmc* value and that in water (cmc) the stoichiometry of the surfactant-β-CD complex was calculated. At a given mCD, the apparent molar volume Vϕ,CD and heat capacity Cϕ,CD of β-CD in the two surfactants were calculated as functions of surfactant concentration mS. For both NaDS and DTAB, Vϕ,CD incr…
Thermodynamics of Solubilization of Pentanol in Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate-Dodecyldimethylamine Oxide Mixed Micelles
Abstract Heat capacity and density measurements of pentanol (PeOH)-sodium dodecyl sulfate (NaDS)-dodecyldimethylamine oxide-water mixtures were carried out at 0.03 m PeOH as a function of the total surfactants concentration (mc) at different ratios (XNaDS). From experimental data, the apparent molar volumes (VΦ,R) and heat capacities (CΦ,R) of PeOH in the surfactants mixture solutions were calculated. As a general feature, at a given mixture composition, VΦ,R increases monotonically with mt as observed in pure surfactants. In the cases of XNaDS = 0.1 and 0.3, VΦ,R drops at about 0.1 and 0.15 mt respectively. The decreasing CΦ,R VS mt curve shows peculiarities which were ascribed to the pres…
Enthalpies of transfer of pentanol from water to sodium dodecylsulfate-dodecyl-dimethylamine oxide-water mixtures
At a given surfactant-surfactant ratio, the enthalpies of transfer ΔH (W→W+S) of pentanol 0.03m from water to sodium dodecylsulfate (NaDS)-dodecyldimethylamine oxide-water mixtures as functions of the surfactants mixture concentration (m t) were determined. ForX NaDS=0.9, ΔH (W→W+S) increases monotonically withm t such as observed for pure surfactants. ForX NaDS=0.12 and 0.3, ΔH (W→W+S) increases withm t up to 0.12m beyond which it decreases withm t. AtX NaDS=0.6, two monotonic curves can be distinguished in the ΔH (W→W+S)vs. m t trend. Experimental data were fitted through an equation previously reported for additives in pure surfactants derived by assuming the pseudo-phase transition mode…
N,N,N-Alkyloctyldimethylammonium Chlorides in Water: A Thermodynamic Investigation
Abstract Specific conductivities, densities, heat capacities and enthalpies of dilution at 298 K and osmotic coefficients at 310 K were measured for N,N,N -octylbutyldimethylammonium, N,N,N -octylpentyldimethylammonium, and N,N -dioctyldimethylammonium chlorides in water as functions of concentration. From the specific conductivity data, the CMC and the degree of the counterion dissociation have been calculated. It is shown that additional CH 2 groups in the variable alkyl chain affect both CMC and β less than they do in the single chain surfactants. The partial molar volumes, heat capacities, relative enthalpies, nonideal free energies, and entropies at 298 K were derived as functions of t…
Energetics of Water−Dodecyl Surfactant−Macrocyclic Compound Ternary Systems
Enthalpies of dilution and osmotic coefficients of sodium dodecyl sulfate (NaDS) and dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) in water + 18-crown-6 ether (CR) and water + β-cyclodextrin (CD) at a fixed cosolvent concentration were measured at 298 and 310 K, respectively, as functions of the surfactant concentration (mS). Enthalpies of transfer ΔH (W → W + S) of CR (0.03 m) from water to NaDS and DTAB aqueous solutions as functions of mS were also determined at 298 K. From the enthalpies of dilution the apparent (LΦ,S) and partial (L2,S) molar relative enthalpies of both surfactants were calculated. Despite CR forms inclusion complexes with the anionic surfactant only, the L2,S vs mS profiles…
Volumes and heat capacities of anionic-nonionic surfactant mixtures
Density, heat capacity and surface tension measurements of sodium decylsulfate (NaDeS)-dodecyldimethylamine oxide (DDAO)-water mixtures were carried out as functions of the surfactants total molality mt at fixed stoichiometric mixture compositions XNaDeS. From the surface tension data, the critical micelle concentration of NaDeS-DDAO mixtures as a function of XNaDeS were obtained. From density and heat capacity data, the apparent molar volume VΦ,2 and heat capacity CΦ,2 of NaDeS-DDAO mixtures in water were calculated, respectively. At a given mole fraction, VΦ,2 and CΦ,2 monotonically increases and decreases, respectively, with increasing mt. However, anomalies were observed at XNaDeS=0.1 a…
