Abstract

Abstract A homologue series of sodium secondary n-alkanesulfonates (C 14, C 16 and C 18) were obtained by photosulfochlorination process with two different reaction conditions. Different length chains with different isomeric distributions of n-alkanesulfonates are expected to present variations in physicochemical properties. In this investigation, the relationships between their isomeric distribution and their chain length and micellar ...
