Abstract

Abstract A series of long-chain ester-based water-soluble cationics have been synthesized by using renewable raw materials like fatty acids and halogenated alcohols. The surface activity of the molecules has been determined by measurement of their conductance and surface tension in aqueous solution. The dynamics of surface activity of these surfactants have also been investigated in the presence of sodium halides (NaCl and NaBr) by ...
