Synthesis and characterization of amphiphilic surfactants with hexadecyl (C16H33-) side chains for use in marine antifouling paints
In this work, two surfactants derived from cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) were synthesized by telomerization reaction: N-hexadecyl, N-methyl, N-(1,1 dimethyl) ethoxy amin and zinc di- cetyltrimethylammonium. The first one is a surfactant with a linear hydrocarbon chain C16H33, the second one is a nanocomposite with two linear C16H33 chains. The latter was prepared in distilled water as solvent and zinc dioxide at 50°C. The characterization of these two telomeres was obtained by nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).
