Abstract

      In the current research, two types of new cationic gemini surfactants with different spacers                  (aromatic and heterocyclic) derived from epichlorohydrine were prepared.

     The prepared compounds were characterized using FTIR and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. Then the value of critical micelle concentration CMC was calculated using the electrical conductivity and preparing a series of molar concentration of the new surfactants, as well as calculating the balance value between the hydrophilic and hydrophobic (lipophilic) HLB groups.

      Cationic gemini surfactants were tasted at different concentration 20-40 ppm by preparing dishes for oil-in-water emulsions determine their dispersion efficiency. It was observed that the dispersant containing the heterogeneous ring (MS1) was more efficiently dispersed than the surfactant containing the aromatic ring (MS2) in the presence of the same hydrocarbon chain and at a concentration of 40 ppm.
