Abstract

A series of calix [6] arene-based surfactants have been synthesized, which contain amide oxime head groups on their upper rim and 5, 5-dimethylhexyl (I), n-octyl (II), n-dodecyl (III), and n-hexadecyl (IV) groups on their lower rim. Composite membranes that were fabricated from Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) multilayers derived from each surfactant plus poly [1- (trimethylsilyl)-1-propyne](PTMSP) cast film showed a significant increase in their ...
