General description

Alkyltrimethylammonium bromide is a surfactant and can be used to study the forces and stability of foam films produced from soluble cationic surfactants.

Application

Alkyltrimethylammonium bromide has been used in a study to assess the adsorption of sugar surfactants at the air/water interface. It has also been used in a study to investigate dynamical features in cationic micelles.

Other Notes

Predominantly C14H29N(CH3)3Br but also contains C12 and C16 homologs.

Chain length is one of the parameters controlling the structural arrangement of micelle monomers, such that one can tailor the monomers for different applications, but the effect of chain length on the dynamical behavior of micelles is unknown. In this

The adsorption isotherms of n-decyl-β-D-glucoside (β-C(10)G(1)) as well as various n-alkyl-β-D-maltosides (β-C(n)G(2)) with n=8, 10, 12 and 14 were determined from surface tension measurements. Based on the analysis of the adsorption isotherms, the total free energy change of adsorption was
