Careful measurements of surface tension and viscosity of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) in presence and absence of KCl in pure water and methanol-water mixed solvent media containing 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 volume fractions of methanol at 308.15 K are reported. The concentration of KCl is 0.01M. The concentration of SDS varies from 4.86×10-3 to 29.56×10-3 mol.l-1. The critical micelle concentration (cmc) increases with increase in percentage of methanol and decreases with addition of salt.

Precise measurements on the specific conductivity of cationic surfactant (Dodecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide) and anionic surfactant (Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate) in methanol water mixed solvent media containing 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3 volume fractions of methanol are reported at 308.15 K. Specific conductivities of Dodecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide and Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate increase with increase in concentration and decrease with increase in the volume fractions of methanol.  Critical micelle concentration (cmc) increases with increase in volume fraction of methanol in case of both surfactants. Free energy of micellization (ΔGºm) has been calculated. Increase in cmc with increase in volume fractions of methanol has been explained in terms of breaking of structure of water due to co-solvent effect.Keywords: Critical micelle concentration; methanol-water mixed solvent media; Specific conductivity; Dodecyltrimethylammonium Bromide; Sodiumdodecyl SulphateDOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/bibechana.v8i0.4883  BIBECHANA 8 (2012) 37-45

The values of the apparent dissociation constants of the azo dye 4-(2-pyridylazo)-resorcinol (PAR) have been found in the presence of sub- and supercritical concentrations of the anionogenic tenside sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) and the effects of the strong electrolytes NaCl and NaNO3 were also evaluated. In both electrolytes, the pKan values initially are independent of the SDS concentration and then increase. Spectrophotometric and surface tension measurements were employed to determine the critical micelle concentration (cmc) of SDS alone and in the presence of PAR and the given electrolytes. The determined cmc values were in the range 0.20–3.02 mmol l-1 and dependent on the type and concentration of the particular additive.

Viscosity and surface tension measurements of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) in presence and absence of Na2SO4 and MgSO4 in aqueous media are reported. The results showed an increase in viscosity with increase in concentration of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide in presence and absence of salts where as the decrease in surface tension with increase in concentration of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide in presence and absence of salts. The viscosity of CTAB was observed lowest in pure water and increases in presence of MgSO4 and then more increases in presence of Na2SO4 where as the surface tension of CTAB was observed highest in pure water and decreases in presence of Na2SO4 and then more decreases in presence of MgSO4.The critical micelle concentration (cmc) of CTAB decreases in presence of salts in both viscosity and surface tension measurements. The decreasing cmc of CTAB are found to be more in the presence of Na2SO4 in comparison with the presence of MgSO4 for both measurements. The graphs of viscosity versus log[C] and the surface tension versus log[C] are used in determining the critical micelle concentration (cmc).        BIBECHANA 14 (2017) 77-85

The concentrations were varied from ~ 0.001 to ~ 0.05 mol-1. The results showed a sharp increase in conductivity with increase in concentration of sodium dodecyl sulphate. Also,the conductivity of sodium dodecyl sulphate increases with addition of salts. The conductivity of sodium dodecyl sulphate decreases with increase in amount of methanol.

The accurate measurements of surface tension of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) in distilled water and in presence of 0.01M Na2SO4 and 0.01M ZnSO4 at room temperature were reported by drop weight method using a stalagmometer. The critical micelle concentration (cmc) of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) in distilled water was obtained higher than in presence of Na2SO4 and ZnSO4. The decrease of cmc of sodium dodecyl sulphate in the presence of salts has been discussed. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/bibechana.v11i0.10383 BIBECHANA 11(1) (2014) 79-85

Abstract. The hygroscopicity of an aerosol largely determines its influence on climate and, for smaller particles, atmospheric lifetime. While much aerosol hygroscopicity data is available at lower relative humidities (RH) and under cloud formation conditions (RH>100%), relatively little data is available at high RH (99.2 to 99.9%). We measured the size of droplets at high RH that had formed on particles composed of one of seven compounds with dry diameters between 0.1 and 0.5 μm, and calculated the hygroscopicity of these compounds. We use a parameterization of the Kelvin term, in addition to a standard parameterization (κ) of the Raoult term, to express the hygroscopicity of surface-active compounds. For inorganic compounds, hygroscopicity could reliably be predicted using water activity data and assuming a surface tension of pure water. In contrast, most organics exhibited a slight to mild increase in hygroscopicity with droplet diameter. This trend was strongest for sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), the most surface-active compound studied. The results suggest that partitioning of surface-active compounds away from the bulk solution, which reduces hygroscopicity, dominates any increases in hygroscopicity due to reduced surface tension. This is opposite to what is typically assumed for soluble surfactants. Furthermore, we saw no evidence that micellization limits SDS activity in micron-sized solution droplets, as observed in macroscopic solutions. These results suggest that while the high-RH hygroscopicity of inorganic compounds can be reliably predicted using readily available data, surface-activity parameters obtained from macroscopic solutions with organic solutes may be inappropriate for calculations of the hygroscopicity of micron-sized droplets.
