Oral doses (100 mg/kg/day) of a 14C-labelled branched-chain alkylpolyethoxylate [( C5H11]2CH14CH2O[CH2CH2O]6H; abbreviated [14C]A12E6) were extensively absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract of rats. During a multiple dosing regime, a proportion of 14C equivalent to one daily dose was excreted each day.

Wormlike micelles of the surfactant penta-, hexa-, and heptaoxyethylene dodecyl ethers C12 E5, C12 E6, and C12 E7 were characterized by static light scattering (SLS) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) experiments to examine effects of uptake of n-dodecane on the

An aqueous solution of non-ionic surfactants becomes suddenly turbid when heated to a critical temperature, known as the cloud point, and concomitantly expands the volume. The volume expansion is caused by release of structured water molecules from the hydrophilic polyoxyethyelene

The rates of solubilization of a homologous series of n-alkanes (CnH2n + 2; n = 8-16) into micellar solutions of n-dodecyl hexaoxyethylene glycol ether (C12E6) have been measured at 298 K. A mechanism involving a micellar dissociation-association process previously proposed
