The behavior of water entrapped in reverse micelles (RMs) formed by two catanionic ionic liquid-like surfactants, benzyl-n-hexadecyldimethylammonium 1,4-bis-2-ethylhexylsulfosuccinate (AOT-BHD) and cetyltrimethylammonium ...

The effect of interfacial water entrapped in two types of catanionic reverse micelles (RMs) on the kinetic parameters of the SN2 reaction between dimethyl-4-nitrophenylsulfonium trifluoromethanesulfonate (S+) and n-butylamine ...

In this work, the absorption and emission behavior of the cationic hemicyanine trans-4-[4(dimethylamino)styryl]-N-methylpyridinium iodide (HC) in reverse micelles (RMs) formed by the catanionic surfactants benzyl-n-hexad ...

The present work shows the synthesis of a new type of catanionic surfactant, ModCD14-BHD, which involves an anionic amphiphilic cyclodextrin and the cationic benzyl-n-hexadecyldimethylammonium (BHD). It is obtained from ...

Diabetes is a disease that affects millions of people in the World, constituting a global problem. Patients are administered insulin subcutaneous injections, resulting in high costs and frequent infections in the injection ...

Catanionic surfactant systems are used as drug-delivery vehicles and as nanocompartments in the formation of biomaterials and nanosized particles. Clay minerals are compatible with organic tissues and also have biomedical ...

Catanionic surfactants are a class of amphiphile which result from the equimolar mixture of a cationic and an anionic surfactant, where the salt formed by the counterions is removed. In our group, for the first time, we ...

Catanionic surfactants: The synthesis of a new surfactant ionic liquid with unique properties is described. The formation of reverse micelles in benzene and large unilamellar vesicles, formed spontaneously without the help ...

The aqueous sodium undecenoate (SUD) -dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) catanionic system was studied at low concentration. The system did not precipitate, even at a 1:1 SUD:DTAB proportion, but showed the formation ...
