A new cationic gemini surfmer: Synthesis and surface activities (original) (raw)

Abstract

A new cationic gemini surfmer (polymerizable surfactant or surface-active monomer) with an acrylic reactive group in its spacer group was synthesized and characterized, and its surface activity properties were examined in comparison with its intermediate surfactant 12-3OH-12Á2Cl-, a previously-reported gemini surfmer 12 0-2-12 0 Á2Br-, as well as monomeric surfactant dodecyl trimethylammonium bromide. It was found that neither the incorporation of a double bond onto the gemini surfactant nor the change of location of the double bond will affect surface activities of the gemini surfactant.
