Binding influence of sunset yellow dye on the sodium tetradecyl sulphate micelles in the presence of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose medium

The micellization properties of mixed aqueous solutions of a cationic gemini surfactant (CGS) and Triton X‐100, a conventional non‐ionic surfactant, with various mole fractions, were determined by measuring the surface tension at different temperatures. Various theoretical models were used to analyze the behavior of this mixed system. The interactions between CGS and Triton X‐100 were determined to be non‐ideal and synergistic. The calculated interaction parameters (βM) have negative values at all temperatures and for all mole fractions, showing attractive interactions. It was found that increasing the mole fraction of Triton X‐100 significantly increased the synergistic effect (more negative values). Micellar aggregation number (Nagg) values of pure surfactants and their mixtures in different ratios were obtained with the steady‐state fluorescence quenching method. Furthermore, the molar solubilization ratio of Sudan III organic dye in all surfactants aqueous systems was obtained using UV–Visible spectrophotometry. At concentrations above critical micelle concentration, the solubility of Sudan III in water was substantially increased linearly for all systems and it was observed that the enhancement was even more significant for mixed surfactant systems.

Micellization, aggregation, interaction, and solubilization behaviors of mixed solutions of cationic gemini and nonionic surfactants

The magnetic field (MF) effects resulting from water or solution treatments are still of significant interest. However, a relatively small number of papers have been published dealing with the pure surfactant solutions alone. On the other hand, surfactants are applied in many industrial processes as well as in everyday life and are also present in different waste waters. Therefore, it seemed interesting to investigate whether some effects would appear after the MF treatment of pure aqueous surfactant solutions. In the earlier published papers after MF action the changes in water evaporation rate and the surface tension were found for both the cationic dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) and anionic sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) solutions. The gradient MF originated from three connected ring magnets inside which the solutions were placed. The objective of this paper is to study whether using the same magnets but in a different position the effects of the MF are observed. The given surfactant solution in a closed vessel was placed in an uniform MF when the magnets were in the “lying” position. The investigated solutions on the magnet surface remained for 24 h. In this paper, despite SDS and DTAB also the cationic hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and nonionic Triton X-100 solutions were applied. It appeared that in the uniform MF the surface tension of cationic and anionic surfactant solutions changes. However, larger changes were observed in the gradient MF. Generally, the changes of surface tension depend on the surfactant kind and its concentration. Stronger MF influence was found for the cationic surfactant and almost no changes were observed for nonionic Triton X-100. 

Effects of static magnetic field on the surface tension of surfactant solutions

Surfactant–dye complexation between anionic dye: Alizarin Red S (ARS) and cationic surfactant:cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) was investigated in an aqueous medium at 303.15 K employing various physicochemical characterization to offer an understanding of the micellization conduct. Here, micellization and thermodynamic parameters have been calculated using the tensiometry and conductivity approach. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of CTAB is observed to decrease in presence of ARS. The Gibbs energy of micellization ( ∆ G mic o $$ \Delta {G}_{\mathrm{mic}}^{\mathrm{o}} $$ ) remains be negative on increasing the ARS content which indicated the spontaneity of the overall micellization process. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) reflected the impact of interactions between CTAB and ARS. ARS solubilization in CTAB micelles caused a red (bathochromic) shift in the ultraviolet–visible spectrum below the CMC thereby inferring that ARS undergoes J-type aggregation in the pre-micellar region. The intercept drawn following the Job's (corrected absorbance vs. CTAB volume ratio plot) method depicted the volume fractions of (equimolar) ARS (VARS) and CTAB (VCTAB) expressed in v/v occurring at VARS/VCTAB = 0.52/0.48, suggesting their stoichiometric ratio of 1:1 amid each molecule of ARS and CTAB leading to CTAB-ARS ion-pair complexation. A computational simulation method using molecular orbital energy calculations was used to evaluate the successive correlation between CTAB and ARS to comprehend the binding mechanism. The lower energy gap (ΔE) value of CTAB-ARS indicated the favorable interaction of ARS with CTAB. Thus, the present work will reflect the significance of surfactant–dye systems in analytical and biochemistry research; and may open novel possibilities in dye absorption and their applications in the removal of dyes using surfactants. 

Micellization, aggregation, and molecular interactions involved in CTAB‐Alizarin Red S complexation

Surfactants in water and both alcohol-water mixed solutions are used extensively in a host of industrial applications. This work presents the solution behavior and micellar transition of a cationic gemini surfactant (GS): N,N′-dihexadecyl-N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyl-N,N′-ethanediyl-diammonium dibromide (16-2-16) in water and mixed water-ethanol media. Phase behavior for 16-2-16 in the ethanol–water system was investigated at ambient temperature. The rheological data obtained for these systems at varying alcohol concentrations showed that the system viscosity (η) decreased with as the ethanol concentration increased. Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) was used to probe the structural details of the cationic micelles as a function of ethanol concentration and temperature. The scattering data inferred a structural transition from unilamellar vesicles (ULV) through rod-like micelles to ellipsoidal micelles occurs that is dependent on the solvent composition and temperature indicating the behavior of ethanol molecules as a cosolvent in the process of micelle breaking. The plausible physicochemical interactions in the 16-2-16-ethanol mixed system were further investigated using a computational simulation study employing density functional theory (DFT)/B3LYP (Gauss View 5.0.9) utilizing a 3-21G basis set.
