Host-guest interactions between cyclodextrins and surfactants with functional groups at the end of the hydrophobic tail [PDF]
The aim of this work was to investigate the influence of the incorporation of substituents at the end of the hydrophobic tail on the binding of cationic surfactants to α-, β-, and -cyclodextrins.

Molecular dynamics simulation of surfactant induced wettability alteration of shale reservoirs
Shale oil has recently received considerable attention as a promising energy source due to its substantial reserves. However, the recovery of shale oil presents numerous challenges due to the low-porosity and low-permeability characteristics of shale ...

Volume behavior of mixed micelles of dodecyltrimethylammonium chloride and bromide [PDF]
Densities of aqueous solutions of mixtures of dodecyltrimethylammonium chloride (DTAC) and dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) have been measured as a function of total molality at constant composition and the apparent molar volumes of the mixtures were derived from the density data.

Lubrication in aqueous solutions using cationic surfactants ? a study of static and dynamic forces
This paper concerns lubrication in aqueous surfactant systems where the surfactants adsorb at surfaces, in relative motion, forming either a surfactant monolayer or a multi- (liquid crystalline) layer.

Mix-and-Match Diols: Adjusting Self-Assembly of Micellar Phases in Choline Chloride Eutectics
The common Deep Eutectic Solvent (DES) ‘ethaline’ (1:2 choline chloride:ethylene glycol) was examined here as a basis for the self-assembly of the surfactant dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (C12TAB). A phase diagram was constructed, showing evidence for

Probing competitive interactions in quaternary formulations [PDF]
Hypothesis The interaction of amphiphilic block copolymers of the poly(ethylene oxide)–poly(propylene oxide)–poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO–PPO–PEO) group with small molecule surfactants may be “tuned” by the presence of selected alcohols, with strong ...
