Alkyl Ethoxylated and Alkylphenol Ethoxylated Nonionic Surfactants: Interaction with Bioactive Compounds and Biological Effects
Nonionic surfactants are amphipathic molecules consisting of a hydrophobic (alkylated phenol derivatives, fatty acids, longchain linear alcohols, etc.) and a hydrophilic part (generally ethylene oxide chains of various length). Although not as important commercially, tertiary amine and various sugar surfactants are also nonionic surfactants. Due to their favorable physicochemical properties, no...
متن کاملLyotropic Phase Behavior and Structure of Mixed Lipid (POPC)-Detergent (C12En, n ) 2, 4, 6) Assemblies: Insights from Hydration-Tuning Infrared Spectroscopy
The work is aimed to understand the effect of nonionic surfactants on the stability of lipid membranes and to characterize the aggregate structure on a molecular level. We studied the lyotropic phase behavior of mixtures of the lipid 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC) with nonionic surfactants of the homologous series C12En (n ) 2, 4, 6) as a function of composition (up to ...
متن کاملMolecular dynamics simulations of surfactant self-organization at a solid-liquid interface.
Self-organization of aqueous surfactants at a planar graphite-like surface is studied by means of coarse-grain molecular dynamics simulations. The nonionic surfactant, n-alkyl poly(ethylene oxide), and water are both represented by coarse-grain models while an implicit representation is used for the graphite surface. The observed morphology of the aggregated surfactants depends on the alkyl cha...
متن کاملPredicting Surfactant Cloud Point from Molecular Structure
A general empirical relationship has been developed for estimating the cloud point of pure nonionic surfactants of the alkyl ethoxylate class. For a set of 62 structures, composed of linear alkyl, branched alkyl, cyclic alkyl, and alkylphenyl ethoxylates, cloud points can be estimated to an accuracy of ±6.3°C (3.7°C median error) using the logarithm of the number of ethylene oxid...
متن کاملMATERIALS AND INTERFACES Solubilization of Naphthalene by Pure and Mixed Surfactants
Surfactant-enhanced remediation technology has shown promising potential for removing residual organics from contaminated soils and groundwater. Using a homologous series of cationic surfactants, alkylpyridinium bromide, it was found that the molar solubilization ratio (MSR) for naphthalene decreases with decreasing carbon number in the hydrophobic tail. In contrast, with nonylphenyl ethoxylate...
