Novel environmentally friendly gemini surfactants, each with two hydrophilic and two hydrophobic groups, have been synthesized and their physicochemical properties investigated. One of the hydrophilic groups is a methyl-capped polyoxyethylene chain with mol wt 350, 550, and 750 g/mol, respectively,
## Abstract The kinetics of hydrolysis of __p__βnitrophenyl acetate catalyzed by Ξ±βchymotrypsin (Ξ±βCT) has been studied in the presence of several cationic surfactants having different head groups maintaining the dodecyl hydrophobic residue and bromide counterion. The enzyme activity was tested in
Cationic gemini surfactants have been extensively studied in the recent past and the effect of chain length, spacer length and nature on aggregation behavior has been examined. But the effect of variation in head group polarity on micellization has not been examined. Hence, the effect of head group
The thermodynamic treatment of a surfactant mixture was applied to the mixture of sodium chloride, NaCl, with octyl methyl sulfoxide (OMS) and that with decyldimethylphosphine oxide (DePO). The surface tension of aqueous solutions of the mixtures was measured as a function of the total concentration
