Enthalpy-entropy compensation in ionic micelle formation

Thermodynamic parameters for adsorption equilibrium of heavy metals and dyes from wastewater with low-cost adsorbents

“…It is shown that the enthalpy and entropy changes for hydrophobic substance dissolution and protein unfolding process was a compensation process which gives a nearly constant Gibbs free energy change [31]. The H 0 versus S 0 plot would exhibit a linear character with the slope of a dimension of temperature, and is referred to as the so-called "compensation temperature" (T C ) [32,33]. Based Table 1 Thermodynamic parameters collected in low-cost works Ref.…”

Micelle formation of polyoxyethylene-type nonionic surfactants in bmimBF4 studied by 1H NMR and dynamic light-scattering

“…This phenomenon is known as enthalpy-entropy compensation. The micelle formation process in surfactant solution also exhibits such a compensation phenomenon [25][26][27][28]. It is of interest to examine the relation between enthalpy and entropy for micelle formation in ionic liquids.…”

Enthalpy–entropy compensation of ionic liquid-type Gemini imidazolium surfactants in aqueous solutions: A free energy perturbation study

“…To explain this contradiction, the most widely accepted opinion is 'iceberg model' [29]. Tanford [34] and Lee [35] suggested that the DS h m are determined by two effects. On the one hand, the decrease in entropy should be the result of the breakdown of the normal hydrogen-bonded structure of water accompanied by the formation of different structure water, often termed icebergs, around the hydrocarbon chain.…”
