Surface Freezing of Cetyltrimethylammonium Chloride-Hexadecanol Mixed Adsorbed Film at Dodecane-Water Interface

The surface freezing transition of a mixed adsorbed film containing cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) and n-hexadecanol (C16OH) was utilized at the dodecane-water interface to control the stability of oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions. The corresponding surface frozen and surface liquid mixed adsorb...

Zusammenfassung:The surface freezing transition of a mixed adsorbed film containing cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) and n-hexadecanol (C16OH) was utilized at the dodecane-water interface to control the stability of oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions. The corresponding surface frozen and surface liquid mixed adsorbed films were characterized using interfacial tensiometry and X-ray reflectometry. The emulsion samples prepared in the temperature range of the surface frozen and surface liquid phases showed a clear difference in their stability: the emulsion volume decreased continuously right after the emulsification in the surface liquid region, while it remained constant or decreased at a much slower rate in the surface frozen region. Compared to the previously examined CTAC-tetradecane mixed adsorbed film, the surface freezing temperature increased from 9.5 to 25.0 °C due to the better chain matching between CTAC and C16OH and higher surface activity of C16OH. This then renders such systems much more attractive for practical applications
