Abstract

The investigation of mixed micellar behavior of surface-active ionic liquid (SAIL) i.e. 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexadecyl sulfate [C4mim][HS] with cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) has been done to explore the type of interactions prevailing in SAIL/Surfactant mixed system. Thus, the conductometric measurements are performed at (298.15, 308.15 and 318.15) K for various mole fractions of [C4mim][HS]. Different theoretical models like Clint, Rubingh, Motomura and Rodenas have been applied to understand mixed micellar behavior of SAIL/Surfactant mixed system. The value of critical micelle concentrations (cmc), micellar mole fraction based upon various models, ideal critical micelle concentrations (cmc*), interaction parameter (β) and thermodynamic parameters have been evaluated for the mixed systems. The variations of various parameters with respect to temperature and mole fractions give insight to sort of interactions present in studied system.
