Micellar
initiators of free radicals formation
Abstract
The influence of surfactant type, peroxide and
reaction media on the velocity of radicals formation initiation in mixed
micellar system “surfactant-peroxide” was studied. It was found that cationic
surfactants as distinct from anionic or non-ionic surfactants catalyze radical
decomposition of peroxides. In organic media the catalytic action of cationic
surfactants is greater than in aqueous solutions. Catalytic activity of
surfactant depends significantly on the counter-ion. Cetyltrimethylammonium
chloride has shown the greatest catalytic activity.
