Thermodynamics of Micelle Formation of Chlorhexidine Digluconate

Abstract: The critical micelle concentrations (cmcs) of chlorhexidine digluconate (CG) in aqueous solution were determined over the temperature range 15-40 "C by a method based on deconvolution into Gaussians of the second derivative of the conductivity/concentration data. The mass-action model was modified in order to calculate the thermodynamic parameters (Ac",, & , ,As",) of micelle formation. To verify the theoretical predictions the enthalpy of micelle formation at 25 "C was calorimetrically determined.

“…We have previously examined the application of this model to systems of low aggregation number, including the cationic surfactant hexyltrimethylammonium bromide (10) and the amphiphilic drugs propranolol hydrochloride (11) and chlorhexidene digluconate (12). In each of these systems the enthalpies of micellization derived from the modified mass action treatment described below were in good agreement with experimental values from microcalorimetry.…”

“…Figure 2 shows plots of κ as a function of molal concentration of SPFO for different temperatures. For each temperature, the concentration dependence of the electrical conductivity shows a wide zone of transition from monomers to micelles, which is usual for weakly associating systems (34). The values of the CMC of the perfluorooctanoate were estimated from the intersection of two linear fragments above and below the breaks in the molality vs. conductivity plots for each temperature.…”

“…The variation of the critical concentration (C*) of propranolol with temperature is shown in Fig. 2 and passes through a minimum of 295.4 K. This plot was fitted to the equation ln X C* ϭ aT 2 ϩ bT ϩ c, [2] where X C* is C* as a mole fraction. The values of the fitting constants were a ϭ (0.00087…”

“…In our continuing investigations on the association characteristics and surface properties of a wide variety of drugs (1)(2)(3)(4)(5) we have investigated propranolol hydrochloride (I), which is the prototype of the beta-adrenergic blocking agents. It is a racemic compound, with only its 1-isomer having any adrenergic blocking activity.…”
