Phase Boundaries, Optical Refraction and Specific Electrical Conductivity Properties in Lyotropic Micellar L-1 Phase: Bicomponent Amphiphilic (DDTMABr plus HDTMABr) plus Water System
Özet
In this work, complex investigations of the temperature and concentration behaviour of the optical refraction properties and specific electrical conductivity properties in lyotropic micellar L-1 phase have been carried out. Bicomponent amphiphilic (DDTMABr + HDTMABr) + water lyotropic systems with various DDTMABr/HDTMABr concentration ratios have been objects of our investigations. The phase diagram for L-1 phase in this system has been determined. Effect of the DDTMABr/HDTMABr concentration ratios on the refractive index and specific electrical conductivity has been observed. The mutual influence of amphiphile with short alkyl chain (DDTMABr) and long alkyl chain (HDTMABr) on the phase states, refractive index and electrical conductivity properties has been found. Our results show that variation of the concentration ratio in a mixture of amphiphiles with different length of the non-polar tail gives possibility to regulate the hydrophilicity degree, optical density, refraction properties and specific electrical conductivity of mixed lyotropic systems.
