Analysis of the Photophysical Behavior and Rotational-Relaxation Dynamics of Coumarin 6 in Nonionic Micellar Environments: The Effect of Temperature.

The photodynamics of Coumarin 6 have been investigated in three nonionic micellar assemblies, i.e., n-dodecyl-β-D-maltoside (β-C12G₂), p-tert-octyl-phenoxy polyethylene (9.

Self-assembly, surface activity and structure of n-octyl-β-D-thioglucopyranoside in ethylene glycol-water mixtures.

The effect of the addition of ethylene glycol (EG) on the interfacial adsorption and micellar properties of the alkylglucoside surfactant n-octyl-β-D-thioglucopyranoside (OTG) has been investigated. Critical micelle concentrations (cmc) upon EG addition were obtained by both surface tension measurements and the pyrene 1:3 ratio method. A systematic increase in the cmc induced by the presence of the co-solvent was observed.
