The Interaction between Hexadecyltrimethylammonium Bromide to Poly(Ethylene Glycol)with Different Molecular Weights and Some Schiff-Bases Investigated by Surfactant Ion Selective Electrode

摘要

The interaction between ionic surfactants and different nonionic molecules and polymers are studied using ion surfactant selective electrode.From the experimental data,critical concentrations of the interaction and binding process are evaluated.The interaction between hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide(HTAB)with polyethylene glycol(PEG)in three molecular weights(1000,10000 and 100000)and also schiff-bases,2-[2-carboxyphenyl nitrilomethylidyne]-phenol(ortho CNP),2-[3-carboxyphenyl nitrilomethylidyne]-phenol(meta CNP)and 2-[4-carboxyphenyl nitrilomethylidyne]-phenol(para CNP)with the potentiometric method were investigated using HTAB membrane selective electrode.In the case of PEG with increasing molecular weights more interaction to HTAB occurs.The electromotive force(EMF)data also showed that interaction between para CNP with HTAB is more than the other schiff-bases.It seems this case related to less space interference of COOH group for that compound.The onset of binding(T_1)of course is the same for three schiff-base molecules.
