Mixtures of surfactants can result in formation of various structures like micelles, vesicles and
inverted micelles. Catanionic vesicular systems are preferred on account of their ease of …

Rapid development of computer power during the last decade has made molecular
simulations of lipid bilayers feasible for many research groups, which, together with the …

Hypothesis The properties of conventional surfactants (c-surfactants) are generally accepted
to be amphipathicity-dominated, but extended surfactants (e-surfactants) are additionally …

Dialkyldimethylammonium bromide (2C n Br) surfactants in bilayer exhibit polymorphic
phases and rich self-assembly behaviors. However, the effects of alkyl chain length on the …

A series of novel anionic e-surfactants nC c P p S was molecular designed and synthesized
from long-chain fatty alcohols by polypropoxylation and sulfation followed by neutralization …

Molecular dynamics simulation is applied to investigate the bilayer properties of a novel
catanionic vesicle composed of an ion pair amphiphile, hexadecyltrimethylammonium …

Biosurfactants show synergic effects with synthesized surfactant in reducing hydrophobic/
hydrophilic interfacial tension, while the understanding of the synergistic mechanism is …

Catanionic vesicles are formed spontaneously by mixing cationic and anionic dispersions in
aqueous solution in suitable conditions. Because of spontaneity in formation, long-term …

Research conducted both prior to and after the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic
reveals a notable rise in human exposure to cleaning products, hand sanitizers, and …

A pseudodouble-chain ion pair amphiphile, hexadecyltrimethylammonium-dodecylsulfate
(HTMA-DS), and a double-chain cationic surfactant, ditetradecyldimethylammonium bromide …
