Electrostatic screening and charge correlation effects in micellization of ionic surfactants.
We have used atomistic simulations to study the role of electrostatic screening and charge correlation effects in self-assembly processes of ionic surfactants into micelles. Specifically, we employed grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations to investigate the critical micelle concentration (cmc), aggregation number, and micellar shape in the presence of explicit sodium chloride (NaCl). The two s...
متن کاملCharge screening between anionic and cationic surfactants in ionic liquids.
The aggregation and interfacial behavior of mixtures of anionic (sodium dodecylsulfate, SDS) and cationic (dodecylammonium bromide, DTAB) surfactants were investigated. A room-temperature ionic liquid (IL) was explored as a solvent for the SDS/DTAB system and compared to water. The critical micelle concentration (cmc) and composition in mixed micelles were determined for both solvents. Our expe...
متن کاملMolecular thermodynamic modeling of specific ion effects on micellization of ionic surfactants.
Specific ion effects are ubiquitous in biological and colloidal systems. The addition of electrolytes to ionic surfactant solutions has pronounced effects on micellar properties, such as critical micelle concentration (cmc), micellar size, and shape. Ions play an important role in colloid stability and aggregation behavior of ionic surfactant solutions. Despite extensive experimental data, ther...
متن کاملLong-range electrostatic screening in ionic liquids.
Electrolyte solutions with high concentrations of ions are prevalent in biological systems and energy storage technologies. Nevertheless, the high interaction free energy and long-range nature of electrostatic interactions makes the development of a general conceptual picture of concentrated electrolytes a significant challenge. In this work, we study ionic liquids, single-component liquids com...
متن کاملIon specificity and micellization of ionic surfactants: a Monte Carlo study.
We developed a simulation method that allows us to calculate the critical micelle concentrations for ionic surfactants in the presence of different salts. The results are in good agreement with the experimental data. The simulations are performed on a simple cubic lattice. The anionic interactions with the alkyl chains are taken into account based on the previously developed theory of the inter...
