The interaction between the nonionic polymer poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) of molecular weight 20,000 and surfactants of various types [sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), dodecyl trimethylammonium bromide, octyl beta-D-glucoside, and potassium laurate] has been investigated in an aqueous solution at 25 degrees C by 1H NMR pulsed-gradient spin-echo self-diffusion techniques. The SDS/PEO study was further complemented by component-resolved 1H NMR-based studies of the electrophoretic mobility of PEO and the alkyl part of SDS under the same measurement conditions. Through such combined studies, a much more complete picture of the binding and aggregation processes becomes accessible.

Article Synopsis
  • - The paper studies the effects of partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM) and different types of surfactants on the demulsification of water-in-oil (W/O) crude oil emulsions produced by surfactant-polymer flooding.
  • - It specifically compares anionic (sodium dodecyl sulfate), nonionic (octylphenol polyoxyethylene ether), and zwitterionic (alkyl C16-18 hydroxypropyl sulfobetaine) surfactants on the performance of a demulsifier called D1.
  • - Results indicate that HPAM combined with OP-10 showed the strongest negative impact on demulsification speed and efficiency, highlighting the importance of

The influence of sodium hexadecyl sulfate on the nature of the fluorescence spectra of rhodamine 6G in an aqueous solution and a solution of nonionic Triton X-100 was investigated. The change in the nature of the emission spectra is explained by the formation of hydrophobic stoichiometric and sub-stoichiometric reagent-surfactant associates. Stabilization of the colloid-chemical state and reduction of the total turbidity of rhodamine 6G-anionic surfactant associate solutions with the addition of nonionic surfactant as a modifier were registered.

Accidental ingestion or injection of household products sometimes occurs due to their accessibility, but the toxic manifestations have not been well characterized when they are internally administered. The aim of this study was to investigate the toxic effects induced by ingestion or injection of different ionic surfactants and disinfectants in rats. The test drugs involved benzalkonium and benzethonium (BZK and BZT, both cationic surfactants used as disinfectants), alkyldiaminoethylglycine (AEG, an amphoteric surfactant used as a disinfectant), linear alkylbenzenesulfonate (LAS, an anionic surfactant), polyoxyethylene cetylether (PEC, a nonionic surfactant), chlorhexidine (CHX, not a surfactant but a disinfectant) and saline (control).

The interactions between triblock copolymers of poly(ethylene oxide) and poly(propylene oxide), P103 and F108, EO(n)PO(m)EO(n), m=56 and n=17 and 132, respectively, and m-s-m type gemini surfactants, m=8, 10, 12, and 18, and s = 3, 6, 12, and 16, have been studied in aqueous solution using isothermal titration calorimetry and dynamic light scattering techniques. The enthalpograms of F108 as a function of surfactant concentration show one broad peak at polymer concentrations C(p) < or = 0.50 wt%, below the cmc of the copolymer at 25 degrees C.
