Determination of the Critical Micelle Concentration of Cationic Surfactants by Capillary Electrophoresis

Determination of aggregation thresholds of UV absorbing anionic surfactants by frontal analysis continuous capillary electrophoresis

“…The choice of a technique may depend on its availability, easiness of use, but also on the surfactant nature (ionic and non-ionic) and its spectroscopic properties. More recently, capillary zone electrophoresis has also been established for the determination of CMC values of UV-transparent, anionic and cationic surfactants with low sample consumption [13][14][15][16][17][18]. The method described consists in determining the surfactant concentration in the operating electrolyte inducing a sudden variation of the apparent mobility of an appropriate marker interacting with the surfactant.…”

Removal of submicron particles from solid surfaces using surfactants

“…This selection of surfactants provided a suitable variety of CMCs and other properties required. A: From experimental data; B: [8]; C: [9]; D: Sigma-Aldrich, 2015; E: [10]; F: [11]; G: [11]. a All HLB values were calculated using the Davies method [12].…”

Recent developments in instrumentation for capillary electrophoresis and microchip‐capillary electrophoresis

“…Since 1995, several reports have described the use of CE instrumentation for the determination of critical micellar concentration (CMC) values [231–234]. Recently, Stanley et al reported a fast (~4 min) method for the determination of CMC values that uses CE instrumentation to monitor relative viscosity changes [235].…”
