Use of fluorescence probes for studying kamlet-taft solvatochromic parameters of micellar system formed by binary mixture of sodium dodecyl sulfate and Triton-X 100
Fluorescence probes have been used to estimate Kamlet-Taft solvatochromic parameters alpha and pi* representing hydrogen-bond donation ability and dipolarity/polarizability, respectively, of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)Triton X 100 (TX100) mixed aggregates with varying compositions. The hydrogen-bond donation ability of the mixed aggregate has been found to increase with SDS composition, whereas the dipolarity/polarizability parameter decreases. The relative contribution of electrostatic and steric effect toward the total free energy of micellization have been calculated for the mixture. The solvatochromic parameters alpha and pi* depend linearly on the total free energy of micellization, indicating a correlation between aggregational and solvatochromic properties.
