The effect of adsorbed polymer on the elastic moduli of surfactant bilayers
We study theoretically the effect of adsorbed homopolymer on surfactant bilayers, restncting ourselves to homogeneous equilibrium adsorption of polymer on both sides of the bilayer, with no penetration We formulate the energy of adsorption per unit area as a Taylor senes m curvature for both sphencal and cylindrical surfaces In the limit of weak adsorption
متن کاملSurfactant bilayers maintain transmembrane protein activity.
In vitro studies of membrane proteins are of interest only if their structure and function are significantly preserved. One approach is to insert them into the lipid bilayers of highly viscous cubic phases rendering the insertion and manipulation of proteins difficult. Less viscous lipid sponge phases are sometimes used, but their relatively narrow domain of existence can be easily disrupted by...
متن کاملPolymer–surfactant Interactions
Surfactants and polymers are two of the important components in detergent formulations. The interactions between polymers and surfactants in aqueous media give rise to the formation of association structures, thereby modifying the solution and interfacial properties. The morphologies of association complexes depend on the molecular properties of the polymer and the surfactant. In this paper, we...
متن کاملFoaming and foam stability for mixed polymer-surfactant solutions: effects of surfactant type and polymer charge.
Solutions of surfactant-polymer mixtures often exhibit different foaming properties, compared to the solutions of the individual components, due to the strong tendency for formation of polymer-surfactant complexes in the bulk and on the surface of the mixed solutions. A generally shared view in the literature is that electrostatic interactions govern the formation of these complexes, for exampl...
متن کاملSurfactant-Polymer Systems at Interfaces
Insoluble surfactant monolayers at the air/water interface undergo a phase transition from a high-temperature homogeneous state to a low-temperature demixed state, where dilute and dense phases coexist. Alternatively, the transition from a dilute phase to a dense one may be induced by compressing the monolayer at constant temperature. We consider the case where the insoluble surfactant monolaye...
