Structure and composition of cationic-nonionic surfactant mixed adsorbed layers on mica.

The composition and morphology of mixed adsorbed layers comprising one of several poly(oxyethylene) alkyl ether nonionic surfactants, C(i)E(j), and two cationic surfactants-dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) and tetradecyltriethylammonium bromide (TTeAB)-at the mica/solution interface have been studied using depletion adsorption and atomic force microscopy. The nonionic surfactants do not themselves adsorb onto mica, but can coadsorb with a cationic surfactant. The extent of their hydrophobic association with the adsorbed cationic surfactant depends on alkyl chain length, while the adsorbed layer morphologies are sensitive to the number of ethoxy groups. Nonionic surfactants with headgroups containing less than eight ethylene oxide units decrease the adsorbed aggregate curvature, gradually transforming globular TTeAB or cylindrical DTAB adsorbed aggregates into a rod, mesh, or bilayer structure. Those with larger headgroups favor globular aggregates. The mechanism by which the nonionic surfactant modifies the adsorbed morphology is the formation of defects in the form of cylinder end-caps or branch-points, leading to adsorbed layer compositions that differ from ideal mixing predictions. All mixed adsorbed films become saturated with the nonionic component when the capacity of the aqueous side of the adsorbed layer is reached.
