Mixed micelle formation of anionic surfactants sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and sodium lauroyl sarcosine (SLAS) have been studied in water and in 5, 10, and 15 mM concentrations of α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) over mole fraction range of αSDS from 0 to 1. From the conductivity curves, the critical micellar concentration (CMC) for the pure and binary mixtures were evaluated. The degree of counterion association (χ) or counterion dissociation (δ), the equivalent ionic conductivities of the monomeric species (Λm), the associated species (Λassc), and the micelle (Λmic) were evaluated from the slope of the conductivity vs concentration plots. The CMC values have been used to calculate the thermodynamic parameters such as the standard free energy of micelle formation  and a transfer of standard free energy of micelle  from the aqueous medium to additive medium computed. The apparent CMC of the surfactants varies linearly with α-CD concentrations. From the dependence of CMC of the surfactants on α-CD concentration, we are able to determine the association constant (K) of surfactant-α-CD inclusion complexes assuming 1:1 stoichiometry. Mixed micelle behaves ideally in the pure water as well as at the different concentrations of α-CD, which was evaluated by using the Clint equation, the regular solution approximation, and Motomura’s formulation. Self-diffusion coefficients of the micelle increased upon the induction of SDS into the micelle. 2D-rotating frame Overhauser effect spectroscopy spectra of SDS and SLAS were recorded in the presence of α-CD to investigate the interaction between H-atoms of the alkyl chain of the surfactants and H-atoms of the hydrophobic cavity of α-CD indicating multiple complexation. The fluorescence anisotropy of rhodamine B has been measured to observe the structural behavior of mixed micelle. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
