SURFACE ACTIVE, PERFORMANCE AND BIOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF MONOETHANOLAMIDE BASED NON-IONIC GEMINI SURFACTANTS
Keywords:
Gemini Surfactant, Surface Activities, Performance Properties, Contact Angle Measurements, Biological PropertiesAbstract
Gemini surfactants can be viewed as two conventional surfactants connected via a spacer at the level of the polar head groups. Surface active, performance and biological properties of monoethanolamide based Gemini surfactant were investigated. The head group of the Gemini surfactant consist of ethanol amide connected to a 1,2,7,8-diepoxyoctane. The alkyl tails have been varied in terms of tail length. The surface activities of the synthesized surfactant were determined using surface tensiometry. Within the same homologues series, expected decrease in critical micelle concentration (cmc) with the increase in hydrophobicity was observed. However, the deviation in cmc value from regularity was observed when number of carbon atom in the hydrophobic chain exceeded a certain number. The foam production & stability were studied by measuring the volume of foam production after 30 sec and 300 sec at different concentration. The wetting power and emulsifying power were studied. The dispersion power of Gemini surfactants was quite good. Contact angle with respect to different solid probe were measured. Biodegradability and Antimicrobial property were studied. The synthesized surfactants were showed good antimicrobial activities against the tested microorganisms.
