A Fluorescence Probe Investigation of the Effect of Alkali Metal Ions on the Micellar Properties of a Crown Ether Surfactant

چکیده
essentially constant over the complete sorption range. A&, changes very little once most of the pore space is filled, as the environment of the sorbed molecules remains nearly constant. Consequently, AC, is almost invarient from about 5 to 6.5 molecules sorbed per unit cell (Figure 4). This could clearly lead to sorption hysteresis being observed in isotherm experiment^.^ The reason this hysteresis is only found with low A1 content materials is linked with the fact that the number of strong sorption sites is determined by the number of A1 atoms present. The effect has little to do with anything unusual about p-xylenelp-xylene interactions in the sorbed state, which are weak, and nothing to do with the rate of transport of p-xylene within the crystal environment becoming slow at a critical sorbed molecular concentration, as the kinetic experiment described in the Results section shows. ACm for benzene sorption on silicalite also changes rather slowly as saturation is approached, and this too is manifest in a somewhat unusual isotherm shape, although no hysteresis has been reported. However, the AHm and G,,, curves show that the effect arises in a quite different way, as both these functions change appreciably with amount sorbed. The molecular reasons for this have been discussed earlier in the paper. This work therefore helps to confirm the view that the properties of ZSM-5 zeolites do vary in a systematic and regular way with aluminum ~ o n t e n t , ~ and that the apparently very strange behavior observed in the sorption isotherms does not have an obscure origin.

Influence of a Crown Ether on the Spectral Properties of Triarylmethane Dyes in Aqueous and Micellar Environments
This study demonstrates the spectral data for two triarylmethane dyes, malachite green (MG) and crystal violet (CV) at room temperature. Effects of micellar environment, and crown ether addition on the spectral behaviour of the dyes were studied using absorption spectroscopic method. The dye-anionic surfactant interactions in micellar media were investigated. The chosen surfactants with differe...

متن کاملFluorescent sensing and determination of mercury (II) ions in water
The presence of heavy metals released from industrial activities into water streams is an ever-growing challenge to ensuring a safe and clean aquatic environment. Detection and determination of the levels of these heavy metals in wastewater is an important step before any measures can be taken. In this study we report on a fluorescent sensing probe based on a naphthyl azo dye modified dibenzo-1...
متن کاملAn amine/imine functionalized microporous MOF as a new fluorescent probe exhibiting selective sensing of Fe3+ and Al3+ over mixed metal ions
Nowadays metal-organic frameworks with multiple luminescent centers are very fascinating as multifunctional luminescent material because of their luminescence properties, which could be systematically tuned by deliberate use of organic ligands and metal ions. In this research, we explored a microporous mixed-ligand MOF for highly selective and sensitive detection of metal ions. A two-fold inter...

In this article cloud-point extraction (CPE) was used with chelating agent to extract uranium from aqueous solutions. The methodology used is based on the formation of metal complexes soluble in a micellar phase of surfactant. The metal ions complexes are then extracted into the surfactant-rich phase at a temperature above the cloud-point temperature. The effect of type of surfactants and ligan...
