Influence of Ionic Surfactants on the Aggregation of Poly(Ethylene Oxide)−Poly(Propylene Oxide)−Poly(Ethylene Oxide) Block Copolymers Studied by Differential Scanning and Isothermal Titration Calorimetry
Abstract
The interaction between three triblock copolymers of poly(ethylene oxide) and poly(propylene oxide), EOnPOmEOn, and the ionic surfactants sodium dodecyl sulfate, SDS, and hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride, CTAC, has been studied in dilute aqueous solution using differential scanning calorimetry, DSC, and isothermal titration calorimetry. The length of the PPO block was the same in all three copolymers (68−69 PO units), and the lengths of the PEO groups varied from 5, 20 and 97 EO units. The copolymers are denoted L121, P123, and F127 in order of increasing PEO block size. In dilute aqueous solution P123 and F127 aggregate to form micelles, while the most hydrophobic polymer, L121, forms aggregates which, eventually, separate to give a liquid crystalline phase. Differential scanning calorimetry was used to follow the effect on the copolymer aggregates upon addition of ionic surfactants. Addition of SDS to P123 and L121 increased the temperature for aggregation, but polymer aggregates still formed in 6.2 ...
