Abstract:Apparent molar heat capacities at 25 °C of a series of
1-alcohols and three branched alcohols were determined
in mixtures of the type alcohol + (p wt % AOT +
n-decane) at R = 0 and 10, R being
the water−surfactant
molar ratio [W]/[S]. For methanol and 1-hexanol, the
measurements were done for different p values as
a
function of alcohol concentration. For all the other alcohols
p = 5. Heat capacities for the binary (AOT
+
nC10) and the ternary (AOT + W +
nC10) mixtures, as well as for 1-hexanol in a 5
wt % solu… Show more
“…This reinforces the conclusions that Kb may be affected by the spatial restriction of the bigger molecules. Very similar effects have been observed when comparing the hydrogen binding constants of alkanols with AOT in the micellar interface (41).…”

“…Similar behavior was found for some phenols in AOT/isooctane/ water (37) and naphthols in AOT/cyclohexane/water (40). Very recently, the effect of the addition of a series of linear and branched alcohols to AOT/n-decane/water reversed micelles has been studied (41). The formation of hydrogen bond complexes between the polar heads of AOT in the micellar interface and the alcohols has been proposed.…”

“…They had concluded that the main driving force is the existence of the hydrophilic group, while the presence of a long alkyl chain becomes practically irrelevant. Perez-Casas et al [42] have also found that the interaction of the OH group with the polar head of AOT is dominant once alcohols have penetrated the micelle.…”

“…The radius of the water pool and size of the reverse micelles are characterized by ω, which is the watersurfactant molar ratio. The aggregates [4,5] formed in solution when a small amount of water is present (ω < 15) are called reverse micelles and when a large amount of water is present are called microemulsions. Reverse micelles can solvate a wide range of hydrophilic compounds.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
