Interaction between sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) and pluronic L61 in aqueous medium: assessment of the nature and morphology of the formed mixed aggregates by NMR, EPR, SANS and FF-TEM measurements
The interaction of copolymer L61 i.e. , (EO) 2 (PO) 32 (EO) 2 (where EO and PO are ethylene and propylene oxides, respectively) with surfactant SDS (sodium dodecylsulfate) in relation to their self-aggregation, dynamics and microstructures has been physicochemically studied in detail employing the N...

(where EO and PO are ethylene and propylene oxides, respectively) with surfactant SDS (sodium dodecylsulfate) in relation to their self-aggregation, dynamics and microstructures has been physicochemically studied in detail employing the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR), Small-Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS), and Freeze-Fracture Transmission Electron Microscopy (FF-TEM) methods. The NMR self-diffusion study indicated a synergistic interaction between SDS and L61 forming L61-SDS mixed complex aggregates, and deuterium (

H) NMR pointed out the nonspherical nature of these aggregates with increasing [L61]. EPR spectral analysis of the motional parameters of 5-doxyl steraric acid (5-DSA) as a spin probe provided information on the microviscosity of the local environment of the L61-SDS complex aggregates. SANS probed the geometrical aspects of the SDS-L61 assemblies as a function of both [L61] and [SDS]. Progressive evolution of the mixed-aggregate geometries from globular to prolate ellipsoids with axial ratios ranging from 2 to 10 with increasing [L61] was found. Such morphological changes were further corroborated with the results of

H NMR and FF-TEM measurements. The strategy of the measurements, and data analysis for a concerted conclusion have been presented.
The gist of the morphological changes of the self-assemblies in solution by way of the SDS-L61 interaction primarily based on findings from SANS and FFTEM measurements supplemented with other methods. |
