Experimental Research on Apparent Viscosity Behavior of Cationic/Anionic Worm-Like Micelles

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, cationic surfactant and anionic surfactant form worm-like micelles by self-assembly. The cationic surfactant is acryloxyethyl trimethylammonium chloride (DAC). The anionic surfactant is potassium erucic (KEU). Mixed the cationic surfactant and anionic surfactant, because the DAC molecule contain a double bond, then, polymerized the solution with VA - 044. By contrast many experiments, the purpose is to get the highest apparent viscosity. After comparing, when the molar ratio of n (KEU) : n (DAC) = 5:1, the largest viscosity of worm-like micelles is 1450mPa•s.
