General description

Tetraethylene glycol monodecyl ether is a surfactant.

Application

Tetraethylene glycol monodecyl ether has been used in a study to assess anomalous thickness variation of the foam films stabilized by weak non-ionic surfactants. It has also been used in a study to investigate removal of vaporous naphthalene using polyoxyethylenated nonionic surfactants.

Previous research has demonstrated that an anionic surfactant can increase the solubility of the vapor phases of both naphthalene and sulfur dioxide in water. This study examines the feasibility of removing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) during gas absorption by adding

The interfacial properties and water-in-CO2 (W/CO2) microemulsion (μE) formation with double- and novel triple-tail surfactants bearing trimethylsilyl (TMS) groups in the tails are investigated. Comparisons of these properties are made with those for analogous hydrocarbon (HC) and fluorocarbon (FC) tail

We showed in a previous study that a water-nonionic surfactant system, where the surfactant is a 9:1 mixture of tetraethylene glycol monodecyl ether (C(10)E(4)) and pentaethylene glycol monodecyl ether (C(10)E(5)), forms a disconnected lamellar (L(α)) phase. Thus, the isotropic phase

A molecular modeling approach is presented with a focus on quantitative predictions of the surface tension of aqueous surfactant solutions. The approach combines classical Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations with a molecular-thermodynamic theory (MTT) [ Y. J. Nikas, S. Puvvada, D.

In our present work we present an approach which allows one to confine proteins in structurally nearly identical bicontinuous microemulsions with systematically decreasing water domain size. It is shown that sub-diffusive behaviour occurs already at water domain sizes below 13
