With the aid of pH variation, direct transformation of a "1-1" cationic-anionic surfactant pair to a "1-2" cationic-anionic surfactant pair was attained in the system of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide and n-decylphosphoric acid. Owing to the transformation of a "1-1" pair to a "1-2" pair, diverse microstructures and peculiar phase behavior in this cationic-anionic surfactant mixture was obtained at different pH. It is proposed that pH can be manipulated for effectively tailoring the self-assembled organization in this cationic-anionic surfactant system, including spherical micelle, wormlike micelle, vesicle, and lamellar structure. In contrast to the conventional "1-1" surfactant pair, the "1-2" cationic-anionic surfactant pair exhibits unexpectedly weak aggregating ability. It is suggested that the hydrated volume of surfactant headgroup should be taken into consideration to better elucidate the self-assembly behavior of these "1-2" cationic-anionic surfactant mixtures.
在十六烷基三甲基溴化铵和正癸基磷酸体系中,借助pH值变化,实现了“1-1”阳离子-阴离子表面活性剂对向“1-2”阳离子-阴离子表面活性剂对的直接转变。由于“1-1”对向“1-2”对的转变,在不同pH值下,该阳离子-阴离子表面活性剂混合物获得了多样的微观结构和独特的相行为。研究表明,可通过调控pH值有效定制该阳离子-阴离子表面活性剂体系中的自组装结构,包括球形胶束、蠕虫状胶束、囊泡和层状结构。与传统的“1-1”表面活性剂对相比,“1-2”阳离子-阴离子表面活性剂对表现出出人意料的弱聚集能力。建议考虑表面活性剂头基的水合体积,以更好地阐明这些“1-2”阳离子-阴离子表面活性剂混合物的自组装行为。
