Fluorescence Probe Investigation of Anionic Polymer-Cationic Surfactant Interactions
نویسنده
چکیده
Pyrene and pyrene-labeled poly(acry1ic acid) were used as fluorescence probes to investigate the interactions between poly(acry1ic acid) and dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide. The polarity dependence of the vibrational structure of the pyrene emission spectrum indicated the formation of micelle-like surfactant aggregates at concentrations that are significantly below the critical micelle concentration (cmc). The extent of excimer formation of the polymeric probe was found to depend significantly upon the surfactant concentration. These results were interpreted in terms of polymer conformational changes induced by surfactant as well as the static versus dynamic nature of excimer formation.

Interactions of a hydrophobically modified polymer with oppositely charged surfactants.
The interaction of a hydrophobically modified anionic polymer (PMAOVE) with a cationic surfactant (DTAB) was studied using a multi-technique approach: turbidity, surface tension, and viscosity measurements, as well as EPR (5-doxyl stearic acid) and fluorescence (pyrene) probe techniques were used. In the investigated pH range (4-10), the cationic surfactant headgroups interact with the anionic ...
متن کاملFoaming and foam stability for mixed polymer-surfactant solutions: effects of surfactant type and polymer charge.
Solutions of surfactant-polymer mixtures often exhibit different foaming properties, compared to the solutions of the individual components, due to the strong tendency for formation of polymer-surfactant complexes in the bulk and on the surface of the mixed solutions. A generally shared view in the literature is that electrostatic interactions govern the formation of these complexes, for exampl...

Surface forces measurements have been made between adsorbed layers on mica of a cationic polymer (Polymer JR-400) in distilled water, both in the absence and in the presence of the anionic surfactant sodium dodecylsulfate. In the absence of surfactant, the polymer was bound to the oppositely charged mica surface and exhibited hysteresis force curves which were monotonically repulsive up to a co...
