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…
Thermodynamics of transfer of polar additives from the aqueous to the dodecylsurfactant micellar phases
The enthalpies of transfer from water to aqueous surfactant solutions, ΔH(W→W+S), of polar additives have been determined as a function of the surfactant concentration at fixed additive concentration. The surfactants used are sodium dodecylsulfate (NaDS), dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide and dodecyldimethylamine oxide (DDAO). The additives used are iso-butanol t-butanol, butoxyethanol, phenol, benzene, tributylphosphine oxide (TBPO), octyldimethylphosphine oxide (ODPO), octydimethylamine oxide (ODAO), DDAO and NaDS. A maximum was observed in the plots of ΔH(W→W+S) vs. fsms curves for ODPO and ODAO in NaDS while a small minimum was observed for TBPO. The experimental data are rationalized on…
Thermodynamic properties of some N-alkyl-N-methylpiperidinium chlorides and N-alkylpiperidine hydrochlorides in water
Densities and heat capacities at 25[degrees]C were measured for N-octyl-, N-decyl- and N-dodecyl-N-methylpiperidinium chlorides and for N-octyl- and N-dodecylpiperidine hydrochlorides in water as functions of concentration. Enthalpies of dilution at 25[degrees]C and osmotic coefficients at 37[degrees]C of the N-methyl-N-alkylpiperidinium chlorides were also measured as functions of concentration. The partial molar volumes, heat capacities, relative enthalpies, nonideal Gibbs energies and entropies at 25[degrees]C were derived as functions of the surfactant concentration. By increasing the alkyl chain length of the surfactant, both the apparent molar volume vs. concentration curves are shift…
Enthalpies of Mixing of Some Primary Hydrogenated and Fluorinated Alcohols and Sodium Dodecanoate Aqueous Solutions
Abstract The enthalpies of transfer from water to the surfactant solutions ΔH(W → W + S) of some hydrogenated and fiuorinated alkanols and of sodium dodecanoate NaL were determined. In the premicellar region the measurements were carried out as functions of both the additive and the surfactant concentrations in order to evaluate the interaction parameters between the additive and the surfactant molecules. It is shown that in this region, pair, triplet, and quadruplet interaction parameters between unlike solute molecules contribute to ΔH(W → W + S). Within the large uncertainty with which these parameters are determined because of the very narrow surfactant and alcohol concentration interva…
