Association Behavior of Poly(methacrylic acid)-block-Poly(methyl methacrylate) in Aqueous Medium: Potentiometric and Laser Light Scattering StudiesPalaniswamy, R., Wang, C, Tam, Michael K. C., Gan, L.H. 01 1900 (has links)
Atom transfer radical polymerisation (ATRP) technique was used to synthesize poly(methacrylic acid-block-methyl methacrylate) (P(MAA₁₀₂-b-MMA₁₀)) copolymer in order to study the aggregation behavior in aqueous solution over the course of neutralization. A combination of static and dynamic light scattering (SLS, DLS) and potentiometric titration techniques were used to investigate the size and shape of the micelle at various degrees of neutralization. The hydrodynamic radius (Rh) determined from dynamic light scattering increases from ~26nm (for unneutralized) to ~42nm (for completely neutralized sample). Both potentiometric and laser light scattering studies indicate the formation of a core shell micelle. The weighted average molecular weights of the polymer and micelle are 1.18x10⁴ and 2.25 x 10⁵ g/mol respectively, which suggests that the aggregation number of the micelle is ~20. / Singapore-MIT Alliance (SMA)

Přenos energie ve studiu hydrofobních domén koloidních systémů / Energy transfer and hydrophobic domains in colloidal systemsKučerová, Petra January 2009 (has links)
In this thesis resonance energy transfer between perylene and fluorescein in tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide (TTAB) solution was studied. The influence of addition of native or modified sodium hyaluronate on resonance energy transfer was also investigated. The addition of native sodium hyaluronate supports energy transfer at lower fluorescein concentrations and the addition of modified sodium hyaluronate influences the maximal value of energy transfer effectivity. Strong influence on the critical micelle concentration (CMC) values with the addition of sodium hyaluronate during CMC of TTAB determination was investigated. The data indicates not only micelles formation, but also formation of aggregates of sodium hyaluronate with TTAB. Aggregation numbers of TTAB with addition of native and modified sodium hyaluronate by the quenching of pyrene by cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) was investigated. The addition of sodium hyaluronate into the solution of TTAB changes the average mean aggregation number. Solute exchange between micelles of TTAB and the influence of addition of modified sodium hyaluronate on this exchange was also investigated. No solute exchange between micelles in TTAB and in TTAB with added modified sodium hyaluronate was discovered during this experiment.

Zhášení fluorescence ve studiu agregačního chování koloidů / Fluorescence quenching in study of aggregation behavior of colloidsSrholcová, Barbora January 2010 (has links)
This work focuses on examination of hyaluronan-sulfactant aggregates in term of determination of aggregate number. The value of critical micellar concentration (CMC) cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) in three different solvents (water, phosphate buffer and physiological solution). Next the effect of the native hyaluronan supplement on the value of CMC was examined. It wasfound out that the solvent has the biggest effect on the value of CMC whilst the hyaluronan supplement affects CMC only a little. The aggregate number (Nagg) CTAB and the effect of the native hyaluronan supplement were determined out by means of fluorescence quenching. Pyrene was used as a fluorescence probe. Iodine and cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) were used as quenchers. Sulfactant was dissolved in three different solvents (water, phosphate buffer and physiological solution). Not only the hyaluronan supplement but also the used solvent has the strong effect on the value of the aggregate number. When using 10mM CTAB dissolved in physiological solution the value of Nagg was 119 ± 4 while the value was half in buffer. Then we found out that in most cases the hyaluronan supplement reduces the value of the aggregate number.

Estudo de sistema micelares em misturas de água/acetonitrila / Studies micellar systems in mixtures of water/acetonitrileYihwa, Chang 18 August 2000 (has links)
Neste trabalho, estudou-se o efeito da adição de acetonitrila nas propriedades de micelas do detergente aniônico, dodecil sulfato de sódio (SDS), e do detergente catiônico, cloreto de hexadeciltrimetilamônio (CTACl). Medidas de condutividade foram utilizadas para determinar a concentração micelar crítica, cmc, e o grau de dissociação, α, das micelas em função da fração molar de acetonitrila, XAc. Medidas de supressão de fluorescência, resolvida no tempo, com pireno como sonda, foram utilizadas para determinar a influência de acetonitrila no número de agregação das micelas, N, e na dinâmica de migração de solutos entre as fases aquosa e micelar. Em baixas frações molares XAc < 0,2), a acetonitrila insere-se nas cavidades da água, quebrando parcialmente as pontes de hidrogênio da água com a formação de novas pontes de hidrogênio entre as moléculas de acetonitrila e as moléculas de água. Nesta faixa de concentração, ocorre um aumento da cmc e do α, acompanhada de uma diminuição de N. Observa-se também alterações na dinâmica da interação de contra-íons e co-íons supressores na micela. Assim, as micelas de SDS e CTACl formadas em misturas acetonitrila-água são menores, mais dissociadas e apresentam maior fluidez interna. Ao redor de XAc = 0,2, as misturas de água-acetonitrila tornam-se microheterogêneos com o aparecimento de microdomínios ricos em acetonitrila e microdomínios ricos em água. A proporção das regiões ricas em acetonitrila aumenta com o aumento da fração molar de acetonitrila, com apenas pequenas modificações das propriedades dos dois tipos de microdomínios. Em XAc > 0,2 a variação de cmc e de α com a XAc passa a ser menos acentuada, sugerindo que o detergente forma agregados preferencialmente nas regiões mais aquosas; a sonda fluorescente pireno começa sair das micelas durante o tempo de vida do estado excitado; e há claras mudanças na dinâmica de incorporação de íons nos agregados. / This work presents a study of the effect of added acetonitrile on the properties of the micelles of the anionic detergent sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) and the cationic detergent hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTACl). Conductimetric measurements were employed to determine the critical micelle concentration, cmc, and the degree of counterion dissociation, α, of the micelles as a function of the mole fraction of added acetonitrile, XAc. Time resolved fluorescence quenching measurements with pyrene as probe were employed to determine the effect of acetonitrile on the micellar aggregation number, N, and the dynamics of solute migration between the micellar and aqueous phases. At low mole fractions (XAc < 0.2), acetonitrile inserts into the cavities present in liquid water, partially disrupting the hydrogen bonding of water, with formation of new hydrogen bonds between water and acetonitrile. In this range, both the cmc and α increase, while N decreases. The dynamics of incorporation of counterionic and coionic quenchers into the micelles is also altered. Thus, the SDS and CTACl micelles formed in these acetonitrile-water mixtures are smaller, more highly dissociated and internally more fluid than those in aqueous solution. Above XAc of ca. 0,2, acetonitrile-water mixtures become microheterogeneous, the solution containing microdomains rich in acetonitrile and microdomains rich in water. The proportion of acetonitrile-rich microdomians increases with increasing XAc, with only small changes in the properties of the two types of microdomains. Correspondingly, at XAc > > ca. 0.2: the variation of the cmc and α with XAc is much less pronounced, suggesting that the detergent forms aggregates preferentially in the aqueous-rich domains; the fluorescence probe pyrene begins to exit the micelles during its excited state lifetime; and there are distinct changes in the rate constants for the incorporation of ions into the micelles.

Charakterizace koloidních částic pomocí deprotonace v excitovaném stavu za použití pokročilých fluorescenčních technik / Characterization of coloid particles by excited-state proton transfer with advanced fluorescence techniquesKotouček, Jan January 2016 (has links)
The deprotonation characteristics of fluorescent probes -naphthol and 8-hydroxypyrene-1,3,6-trisulphonic acid (HPTS) were studied in this diploma thesis, using steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. Two cationic surfactants, Septonex and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), were studied. These surfactants were measured in the complex with hyaluronan (1.75 MDa, 1 MDa and 300 kDa). Steady-state fluorescence was used for determination of critical aggregation concentration of each surfactant and pKa*. Time-resolved fluorescence decays were used to calculate the average lifetimes and the deprotonation constants of naphthol and HPTS. The measurement with hyaluronan were compared with the polystyrenesulfonate (PSS) – surfactant system. The effect of hydration shell of hyaluronan on hyaluronan – surfactant complex formation results from the comparison of above mentioned systems. Large differences were found in the deprotonation characteristic between surfactants and even between individual molecular weights of hyaluronan. The measurement shows that the hydration shell is located near to the dissociated carboxyl groups of hyaluronan chain, where the interaction with the positively charged surfactants occurs. Furthermore, the aggregation number of Septonex was determined by quenching of pyrene using cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) as a quencher. The aggregation number for 20 mM Septonex solution was determined as a value of 104 molecules. CPC was used for confirmation of the localization of -naphthol in the micelles of CTAB and polymer – CTAB, respectively.

Časově rozlišená fluorescence systémů polymer-tenzid / Time-resolved fluorescence of system polymer-surfactantMondek, Jakub January 2012 (has links)
In this diploma thesis was studied time-resolved fluorescence in polymer-surfactant system. At first aggregation numbers of cationic (cetyltrimethylammonium bromide), anionic (sodium dodecylsulfate) and nonionic (Triton X-100) surfactants were studied by steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. These two methods were compared. Aggregation numbers by steady-state method were always lower than aggregation numbers measured by time-resolved method. Steady-state method of determination aggregation numbers is useless for surfactants with high aggregation number and for aerated samples. Addition of hyaluronan to surfactant system was studied. There was observed change in aggregation number after addition of hyaluronan and change in percentage of dynamic quenching after addition of hyaluronan. Hyaluronan affected aggregation number of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide and Triton X-100. Hyaluronan increased percentage of dynamic quenching in cetyltrimethylammonium bromide and in Triton X-100. Pyren in sodium dodecylsulfate was quenched by sphere of action with negligible percentage of dynamic quenching and addition of hyaluronan had no effect on quenching. As next goal of this thesis, the determination of the position of fluorescence probe pyrene in cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, sodium dodecylsulfate and Triton X-100 micelles was chosen. Position of pyrene changed with charge and structure of micelles. Next was studied how percentage of dynamic quenching by iodide compounds changes with different charge of micelle. In all cases majority of dynamic quenching was calculated.
