Specific Conductivity Maxima of Ionic Surfactants in Acetamide Melt

Abstract: The specific conductivity of sodium dodecyl sulfate, cetyl pyridinium chloride, and sodium nitrate in acetamide melt was measured at 89°C up to (2.067, 1.599, and 3.705) mol‚kg-1 , respectively. The specific conductivity maximum has been observed for sodium nitrate as well as for the two ionic surfactants. This is the first report on the observation of a specific conductivity maximum for any ionic surfactant, which is otherwise a general feature of a normal electrolyte in aqueous or nonaqueous media. In acetam… Show more

“…The conductivity study for ionic surfactants are very popular [1][2][3][4][5] . The addition of an electrolyte will, in general, tend to induce the formation of aggregates at concentrations below the critical micelle concentration (cmc) of the pure surfactant 6,7 .…”

“…2 Several other aspects such as ion conductance 5 and micellization of surfactants in molten acetamide have been studied by several authors to understand the role of the ion-solvent interactions in controlling the ion transport and selfaggregation in this medium. [8][9][10][11][12][13] Because of industrial applications of molten acetamide as nonaqueous solvents for electrolytes and possible use in supercapacitor technology, the liquid-solid equilibrium temperature of (acetamide + electrolyte) mixtures has been explored extensively. [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25] These studies reveal that mixtures of acetamide with certain electrolytes produce liquids that supercool (no spontaneous crystallization) until the glass transition temperature (T g ) is reached.…”

“…Since addition of inorganic salts lowers the melting temperature of acetamide considerably, molten binary and ternary mixtures of acetamide with metal halides have been used as reaction media and also in thermal salt cells to produce electricity. , The possibility of using acetamide as a suitable medium for electrodeposition of metals from salt solutions has also been investigated . Several other aspects such as ion conductance and micellization of surfactants in molten acetamide have been studied by several authors to understand the role of the ion−solvent interactions in controlling the ion transport and self-aggregation in this medium. …”
