Abstract

The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of Triton X-100 (TX-100) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) was measured by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technologies at different temperature. The average residence time of TX-100 and CTAB were determined by one-dimensional line shape analysis. The average residence time of both compounds decreased with increasing temperature, suggesting that the rate of TX-100 and CTAB molecules entering/leaving the micelles increased with temperature. The apparent activation energy of the exchange process was calculated with the Arrhenius equation, and found to be 17.6 kJ/mol for TX-100 and 75.3 kJ/mol for CTAB. The apparent activation energy likely reflected the strength of hydrophobic interaction; while the average residence time depended not only on the hydrophobic interaction but also on the molecular structure.
