Kk. Ghosh et A. Pandey, Kinetic effects of surfactant / polymer mixtures upon acidic hydrolysis ofhydroxamic acids, J DISP SCI, 20(6), 1999, pp. 1635-1646
The influence of surfactant / polymer (polyethylene glycol, PEG, mel. wt. =
400) mixtures upon the acidic hydrolysis of two N-substituted hydroxamic a
cids, i.e., R(CO). N(OH)R': R = C6H5, R' = C6H5; 4-CH3C6H4 has been studied
using cationic (CTAB, TTAB and CPC) and nonionic (TX-100 and Brij-35) surf
actants. An inhibitory effect was observed, The results have been explained
by Portnoy - Menger model. The critical aggregation concentration and poly
mer saturation point-of the corresponding systems have also been measured w
ith the conductivity and surface tension methods.
