Zwitterionic amphiphiles with covalently bonded anionic and cationic groups exhibit
electrically neutral properties but extremely high polarity. Under most circumstances, their …

Zwitterionic surfactants are formally neutral but with headgroups containing both a positive
charge center and a negative charge center separated from each other by a spacer group …

Enzyme immobilization is a widespread empiric technology to achieve more stable, active
and reusable enzymes. The empiricism can be reduced by the application of rational design …

Synthesis of a new zwitterionic surfactant containing the imidazolium ring 3-(1-tetradecyl-3-
imidazolio) propanesulfonate (ImS3-14) is described. The solubility of ImS3-14 is very low …

The micellization of a homologous series of zwitterionic surfactants, a group of
sulfobetaines, was studied using isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) in the temperature …

This paper presents the physicochemical properties of micellar aggregates formed from a
series of zwitterionic surfactants of the type 3-(1-alkyl-3-imidazolio) propane-sulfonate (ImS3 …

Zwitterionic surfactants are relatively overlooked and some of their properties resemble
those of ionic and non-ionic surfactants, but others are unique. There is unimpeachable …

Addition of salts, especially perchlorates, to zwitterionic micelles of SB3–14, C14H29NMe2+
(CH2) 3SO3–, induces anionic character and uptake of H3O+ by SB3–14 micelles. Thus, the …

The rate of specific hydrogen ion-catalyzed hydrolysis of 2-(p-heptoxyphenyl)-1, 3-dioxolane
and acid− base equilibrium of 4-carboxy-1-n-dodecylpyridinium in zwitterionic micelles of …

A selective method is proposed for the determination of palladium, gold, and sulfur in
catalytic systems, by direct liquid analysis using energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence …
