Received 24 August 1998; revised 9 November 1998
Molecular interaction between cety ltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAS) and sodium salicylate (NaSal) has been in vestigated. A I: I complex is formed in solution. The mixed solution at thi s composition micellizes at 0. 12 mmol dm'> at 30DC , and the mi xed micelle binds nearly 55% counter-ions. The molecular complex formation between CTAS and NaSal combination is an exothermic process. The micellizat ion of CTAS-NaSal combination is also exothermic and a two-step process, the overall enthalpy values falling in the range of 10-15 k1 mol" at 3011 C. The micellization process is prominently entropy controlled. The surface excess of CTAB and its minimum area at the air-water interface in NaSal, NaCI and NaSr environments have been determined. The CTAS-NaSal system is non-Newtonian and viscoelas tic, and show shear thinning properties.
Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) is a well st udied micelle forming cationic surractant l

, micellar shape, size and mass, 19.211.25 and solution rheologylx.2 1 ofCTAB - NaSal and other combinations, viz., CTAC-NaSal, CPC - NaSa l, etc. But the interfac ial, aggregational and hydrodynamic man ifestations of these combi nati ons as well as energeti cs of interacti on between cationic surfactants (containing quaternary ammonium or pyridinium head group) and Sal-' and their mixed micelle formation have remained unexplored. There, thus, remains a scope for ex tending the study in the above mentioned areas. The molecular complexat ion between CrAB and NaSal , interfacial adsorpti on and mice lli zation ofCTAB, the counterion binding of the mice ll es formed, energeti cs of micelle formation and hydrodynamic behaviour of CTAB in presence of NaSal have been investigated adopting conductometri c, tensiometric, ca lorimetri c, and viscometric methods. For contrasting the behaviour of NaSal , the effects of salts, viz., NaCI and NaBr on the micellization and interfacial adsorption characteri stics of CTAB have been also examined .
Materials
CTAB used was 99 % pure product of E. Merck, Germany (characteristics reported carli er2), Sodium salicy late was pre-
pared by add ing requisite amount of standard ised NaOH solution in doubl y di st illed water to known mass of doubl y recrystallized salicy lic ac id (A.R., BDH, UK, pKa = 2.97 at 2511 C. The pH of the solution was around 7.00. The solution was well stirred and stored in a stoppered teflon bottle for further use. The other chemicals (NaCI and NaBr) used were of A.R. grade materials obtained from S.D. Fine Chemicals , India .
Doubly distilled conductivi ty water (spec ific conductance 2-4 ~S cm·1 at 30"C) was used for the preparation of all the samples. It 's surface tension varied between 68 and 70mNm·1 at 3011 C.
Methods
Physical measurements were made in thermostated concliti on in a water bath (accuracy, ± 0 . 10') C in all measurements excepting ca lorimetry where the limit was ±0.002° C).
Conductance measurements were adopted to determine the stoichiometry ofCTAB - NaSal complex with a Jenway (U K) conductometer us ing a temperature compensated celIoI' ce ll constant 1.1 cm· l . Concentration variation was made by adding water to concentrated mixed so lutions ofCTAB - NaSal of desired proportions. Measurements were made after thorough mixing and temperature equilibration.
Surface-tension ofCTAB - NaSal mixed soluti on was measured with a Du Nuoy Tensiometer (Kruss, Germany). The measured tensions were corrected according to the procedure of Harkins and Jordan26
. In actual measurements, a concentrated CTAB or CTAB - NaSal solution was progressively added in water or salt solution with the help of a Hamilton microsyringe and the tensions were ,measured after thorough

Direct detennination of enthalpy by an y other method is not possib le and chances of error in its determ ination from the effect of temperature on CMC determined by a phys icallllethod are obviously more.
Results and Discussion
Stoichimetry of CTAB-NaSal interaction The stoichiometry of the interacti on between CTAB and
NaSal was determined conductometri call y following the Job's method of continuous variation as adopted by l ana and Moulik ' . The spec ific conductances of CTAB - NaSal mixtures at different mole ratios but fi xed overall concentrat ion (0. 10 Illmol dm·:') were measured. The values were subtracted from the sum total of the speci fic conductances of the component s, and these differences in conductance (~k) were plotLed against the [CTAB]/[NaSal] mole ratio (Fig. 2). The maximum in ~k was observed at unit mole ratio suggestin g I: I stoichi ometry ror the interacted product. The CTAB - Bi le sa lts systems also ex hibited I: I stoichiometry' .
Critical micellar collcelltratioll (CMC) The CMCs of CTAS and CTAB - NaS al mixtures in the
absence and presence of sal t (NaCi and NaBr) we re determined by tensiometry and micro-calorimetry. The conductance method was not used because or its insensiti veness in sa lt soluti on to obtain CMC hy comparing the slopes of pre- and post- CMC strai ght lines .

the two methods (surface tension and micro calorimetry) are presented in Tables I and 2. Table I contains CMC values of pure CTAB and CTAB - NaSal at different added salt concentrations in presence and absence of addi ti ves and realized by surface tension method. Table 2 presents CMC values of pure CTAB and CTAB - NaSal at different mole ratios obtained from both micro-calorimetry a nd te ns iom e try. Good aggreeme nt has been observed between the CMC va lues obtained by both the methods (Table 2), although method- depe'rioent CMC values of surfac tants are not uncommon in literature lJ2. Large differences have been reported for bile saltsl. The results of surface tension method are used for estimating the interfacial para.meters (max imum adsorption and minimum area per molecu le) at the CMC points.
The CMC of CTAB decreases in presence of NaSal and salts, the reduction is more pronounced in presence of NaSal.

While micell ar charge shield ing in salt environment becomes the reason for lowering of CMC, the significant lowering of CMC by lower concen trat ion of NaSal is a consequence of efficient charge neutra li zation between the complexing ions CTA+ and SaJ'.
Counter-ion binding of lIIicelles The binding of counter-i ons to ionic micelles is the main
reason for the observed break in conductance-concentration plot. Charge neutrali zation between CTA + and Sal' in the mice lle may lead to decreased counter-ion binding by the formed mixed micelle. To decide upon this, frac ti on of counter-i on bound (f) was obtai ned11 according to Eq. ( I) by tensiometric determination ofCMC at different sa lt (SaSa l, NaCI and NaBr) concentrati ons. We reiterate that CMC determination by the conductance method was not done for its insens iti veness in

The results in the parentheses of the last set of Table I and the first se t of Tab le 2 are also based on the same rati onale because their CTAS : NaSal mole ratios are ~ I: I (the molar rati o o f complex forIllati on). The [salt] dependent trend in the minimum area (A . ) is oppos ite to that of the bulk phenomenon (i.e. micell e fOfl~~ti on) ; the mice lle formation is fa voured whereas the A . is lowered. Compared to pure CTAB, the drop in A . in ;';:~sence of salt is apprec iab le. The observed trends i~~"~he measured parameters in the studied salt environments are considered to be in herently controlled by of interfac ial charge neutralisation in presence ofNaCI, NaBr and NaSal.

The standard free energy of adsorption has been also evaluated from f>G"m on the basis of the equation 1.37.

The results arc given in Tables I and 2 and plotted in Fig. 4b. Nonlinearity with respect to -YJ.1 and XNaSal is also observed as for f>G"m (Fig. 4A). The addition of salt has also made the interfacial adsorption process more spontaneous. of course with minor variations among the salts. The phenomenon can be recognized as the salting out e ffect.
The energetic parameters f>G"m • f>H"m and l1S"m (presented in Table 2) for pure CTAB, CTAB-NaSal and CTAB-NaCI systems suggest exothermic micellization of both pure CTAB and CTAB in presence of salt; in compari son, micelli zation of CTAB-NaSal system is more exothermic than that of CTABNaCI. At very low proportion of NaSal (CTAB : NaSal = 40: I) micellization process is similar to that of pure CTAB. With increasing proportion of NaSal (from a NaSal = 0 .048) , the rnicelli zati on process occurs in two steps (Fig . 5) , which are di stincLly vis ible in the differential plots shown in Fig. 6 . The f>H" values corresponding to the higher CMC (which is alway~ around 1.0 mmol dm·3) are shown in parentheses in column e ight in the Table 2. The f>H"m' value correspond ing to lower CMC which declines with increasing proportion of NaSal in the mixture, passes through a minimum at arou nd a NaSal = 0.05 ; the observation is closely similar to that of CPC-NaSal system".

the studied sol uti on appears to culmi nate to shear independent stages. The complex thus appears to withstand considerable shearing st ress. Earlier reports l ~.20 have conclusively supported the viscoe lastic ity and shearthinning of the 'worm orrod-like' CTAS - NaSal aggregates that may form at hi gher concentrati ons through transi tion from spherica l micelles. The soluti on may also show a power law behaviour'~. It may be added that a shear thickening ofCTAS - NaSal has been also repor\ed~n. ~,
due to cont inuous kinetic coagulation forming large micell es
upto CTAB - NaSal ratio of unity; thereafter, the structure breaks down. We have not observed the shear thickneing behaviour of the system.
Conclusions The fi ndings of the present study lead to the followi ng con
clusions : (I) The CTAS - NaSal form a I: I molecular complex in
solution and the mixed system micellizes at 0.1 2. mmol dm ') at 30°C.
(2) The micellization of mixed CTAB - NaSal system and its in terfacial adsorption are both more spontaneous (i.e. having lower free energy change) than those in the pure CTAB.
(3) The enthalpy of micellization of CTAS and CTASNaSal combi nat ions is exothermic. For the CTAB-NaSalmolar ratios from 20: I to 3: I the microcalorimetric method has evidenced a two-step micellization process.
(4) The I : I CTAS - NaSal mixture above its CMC is viscoelastic and exhibits shear thinning properties.
