Counterion and Temperature Effects on Aqueous Ionic Perfluoropolyether Micellar Solutions by Small-Angle Neutron Scattering

Abstract: The effect of concentration and temperature on the microstructure of aqueous micelles of carboxylic perfluoropolyether surfactants, with two perfluoroisopropoxy units in the chain (n2) that is chlorine-terminated, are studied by SANS for the ammonium and potassium counterions. The SANS spectra have been analyzed by a two-shell model for the micellar form factor and a screened Coulombic plus steric repulsion potential for the structure factor in the frame of the mean spherical approximation of a multiion system… Show more

“…The same conclusion can be drawn from 2a N data, keeping in mind that the value for the 500 mmol/dm 3 PFPE-Na system is overestimated due to contribution of the fast spectral component; this contribution increases at higher temperatures, as indicated by the spectrum recorded at 270 K for the sample recooled from 360 K. Under a reasonable assumption of the nitroxide group location close to the Stern layer, the hyperfine splitting data may be interpreted in terms of less ionic and less hydrated environment of the probe in large ellipsoidal micelles. An increase of the counterion binding degree as a function of surfactant concentration, in the range from ∼0.05 to ∼0.2 mol/dm 3 , was observed previously for PFPE-NH 4 [6,8,9], but PFPE-Na was examined only at two concentrations, ∼0.1 and 0.2 mol/dm 3 , and the results were the same within uncertainty [10]. No significant change in the micelle hydration number was deduced from SANS data for these systems [9,10].…”

Table 1 also shows the extreme line separations (2A zz ) in the slow motional spectra at 250 K. At a given surfactant concentration (rigid limit separation the same within experimental uncertainty), the 2A zz value is lower for the sodium salt system than for the ammonium salt system, reflecting the higher probe mobility in PFPE-Na micelles, in agreement with their smaller aggregation numbers [11].…”
