Abstract: | The surface-active properties and emulsification ability of sodium α-sulfonated fatty acid esters, CmH2m+1CH-(SO3Na)COOCnH2n+1, were studied as a function of the hydrophobic alkyl chainlength in the fatty acid (m=8−16) and the alcohol (n=8−18). As
a result, it was discovered that sodium α-sulfonated fatty acid esters have a structural effect on the Krafft point different
from that of amphiphiles with short alkyl chains. Moreover, some of the α-sulfonated fatty acid esters have quite low interfacial
tensions, as well as non-foaming properties, which depend upon the total (m+n) number of carbon atoms in the alkyl chains. |
