General description

Hexadecyltrimethylammonium p-toluenesulfonate is a catatonic surfactant capable of forming wormlike micelles.

Application

Hexadecyltrimethylammonium p-toluenesulfonate has been used in a study to develop a silica grafted polydentate copper (II) complex. It has also been used in a study to investigate the dispersibility and bundle defoliation of single-walled carbon nanotubes.

New amphiphilic pyrimidinic (AP) compounds with two ammonium head groups and different kinds of counterions, inorganic bromide anions (APB) and hydrophobic tosylate anions (APT) were synthesized. Self-organization in these systems has been studied by methods of tensiometry, conductometry, potentiometry and

The shear thickening behavior and the transition to shear thinning are examined in dilute cetyltrimethylammonium tosylate (CTAT) micellar solutions as a function of surfactant concentration and ionic strength using electrolytes with different counterion valence. Newtonian behavior at low shear rates
