Thermodynamics of Micelle Formation of Ionic Surfactants: A Critical Assessment for Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate, Cetyl Pyridinium Chloride and Dioctyl Sulfosuccinate (Na Salt) by Microcalorimetric, Conductometric, and Tensiometric Measurements

Abstract: The thermodynamics of micelle formation of ionic surfactants, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), cetyl pyridinium chloride (CPC), and sodium salt of dioctyl sulfosuccinate (Aerosol OT or AOT) have been thoroughly assessed from microcalorimetric, conductometric, and tensiometric measurements, and the results have been rationalized in terms of physicochemical concepts and relations. The past and recent critical micellar concentration (CMC) data on SDS have been considered and compared; the CMCs of SDS, CPC, and AOT determined in this and earlier studies have been processed to evaluate the energetic parameters (free energy, enthalpy, entropy, and heat capacity) of micellization. The effect of the salt, NaCl, on the CMC and energetics of micellization of the surfactants has been also examined.

Topsis Method for Multi-Attribute Group Decision Making Under Single-Valued Neutrosophic Environment

Abstract: A single-valued neutrosophic set is a special case of neutrosophic set. It has been proposed as a generalization of crisp sets, fuzzy sets, and intuitionistic fuzzy sets in order to deal with incomplete information. In this paper, a new approach for multi-attribute group decision making problems is.

Artificial sweeteners – a review

Abstract: Now a days sugar free food are very much popular because of their less calorie content. So food industry uses various artificial sweeteners which are low in calorie content instead of high calorie sugar. U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved aspartame, acesulfame-k, neotame, cyclamate and alitame for use as per acceptable daily intake (ADI) value. But till date, breakdown products of these sweeteners have controversial health and metabolic effects. On the other hand, rare sugars are monosaccharides and have no known health effects because it does not metabolize in our body, but shows same sweet taste and bulk property as sugar. Rare sugars have no such ADI value and are mainly produced by using bioreactor and so inspite of high demand, rare sugars cannot be produced in the desired quantities.
