Branched trichain sulfosuccinates as novel water in CO2 dispersants
نویسندگان
چکیده
A series of highly branched trichain sulfosuccinate surfactants have been synthesized and studied in condensed CO2 and aqueous environments. Aqueous critical micelle concentrations (CMCs) showed a general trend of increasing CMC with decreasing chain length, whereas increased branching appeared to increase solubility in CO2 and aid the dispersion of water. Near infrared spectra confirmed observed cloud with a large increase in solubility above the cloud pressures in this solvent.

Shape transitions in supercritical CO2 microemulsions induced by hydrotropes.
The ability to induce morphological transitions in water-in-oil (w/o) and water-in-CO2 (w/c) microemulsions stabilized by a trichain anionic surfactant 1,4-bis(neopentyloxy)-3-(neopentyloxycarbonyl)-1,4-dioxobutane-2-sulfonate (TC14) with simple hydrotrope additives has been investigated. High-pressure small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) has revealed the addition of a small mole fraction of h...
متن کاملDispersion of oil into water using lecithin-Tween 80 blends: The role of spontaneous emulsification.
Lecithin-rich mixtures of the nontoxic surfactants lecithin and Tween 80 are effective marine oil spill dispersants, but produce much higher oil-water interfacial tension than other, comparably effective dispersants. This suggests interfacial phenomena other than interfacial tension influence lecithin-Tween 80 dispersants' effectiveness. The interface between seawater and dispersant-crude oil m...
متن کاملSynthesis and Characterization of Anionic Polyurethane Dispersants for Waterborne Paints
Anionic polyurethane dispersants APUDs were used as dispersing agents in formulation of waterborne paints. The APUDs were synthesized by three steps. In the first step, macromonomer diisocyanate having carboxylic acid was prepared by isophorone diisocyanate IPDI, dimethylol propionic acid DMPA in presence of acetone as solvent and dibutyltin dilaurate DBTDL as catalyst. Then, carboxylic polyure...
متن کاملEffects of Three Types of Oil Dispersants on Biodegradation of Dispersed Crude Oil in Water Surrounding Two Persian Gulf Provinces
OBJECTIVE To determine the most effective and biodegradable dispersant of spilled oil in water surrounding two Persian Gulf provinces. METHODS This study compared the effects of three dispersants, Pars 1, Pars 2, and Gamlen OD4000 on removal of oil in two Persian Gulf provinces' water. Overall, 16 stations were selected. Using the Well method, the growth rate of isolated bacteria and fungi wa...
متن کاملEffects of Oil Spill Dispersants on the Growth of Brackish Water Heterotrophic Bacteria
Five heterotrophic bacteria isolated from brackish water collected from Nembe waterside, Port Harcourt, Rivers State were cultured aerobically in the presence of varying concentrations (0, 25, 50, 75 and 100mg/ml) of oil spill dispersants (Gold Crew and Camol) to determine the effects of the toxicants on their growth. The isolates were identified as Staphylococcus, Enterobacter, Bacillus, Pseud...
