Abstract

The interaction of Indian natural dye, that is, Himalaya (Quercus infectoria) with cationic surfactant (cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide) and anionic surfactant (sodium lauryl sulphate) has been studied. The spectrophotometric data showed an interaction between the natural dye and surfactants. Critical micelle concentration (CMC) of the surfactants, determined by measurement of specific conductance and surface tension methods, was found to be increase in case of anionic surfactant while that was found to decrease in case of cationic surfactant. Thermodynamic and surface parameters showed domination of micellization of dye in case of cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide and domination of adsorption of dye in case of sodium lauryl sulphate.
