Abstract
The mixed micellization behavior of (1-dodecyl-1-methylpiperidinium chloride) [C12mpip]Cl and hydrocarbon surfactants, sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS) as an anionic surfactant, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as a cationic surfactant, and octylphenol ethoxylate (Titron X-100) as a non-ionic surfactant in water was investigated using dynamic light scattering (DLS), conductivity, UV spectroscopy, and surface tension measurements. In addition, critical micellar concentration (CMC), the degree of counterion binding (ꞵ), and various thermodynamic parameters of micellization have been evaluated from conductivity measurements. The different interfacial properties were calculated from surface tension measurement. The experimental results of the mix system in an aqueous solution indicated that CMC values decreased with the addition of different mole fractions of surfactant in the surface active ionic liquid (SAIL) mixture. The mix system’s hydrodynamic radius was less for the higher concentration of the surfactant in the mix system, which was assessed using the DLS methodology. The micellar mole fractions (Xm), ideal CMC (CMC*), interaction parameter (βm), and activity coefficients of components (f1 and f2) in the mixed micelle were calculated using various theoretical models (Clint, Rubingh, and Motomura). The negative values of the interaction parameter (βm) suggest the synergistic effects in a mixed state. The mixed micellar parameters (CMC* and Xm) ensure the non-ideal behavior of the mixed system.
