Abstract

New types of ecologically benign surfactants with sugar head groups have been described, namely: N-dodecyl-N-methyllactobionamide (C12-MLA), N-dodecyl-N-methylglucoheptonamide (C12-MGHA), N-dodecyl-N-methylgluconamide (C12-MGA), N-dodecyl-gluconamide (C12-GA) and N-octyl-glucoheptonamide (C8-GHA). Their surface properties, such as static surface tension (γ), critical micelle concentration (CMC), surface area demand per molecule (A) and foaming and wetting properties have been analyzed in relation to lactobionamides (Cn-LA) and well-known oligooxyethylene alkyl ethers. The presence of both the amide methyl group, and the additional 1.4-glucose segment, increases significantly the surfactant solubility and decreases its hydrophobicity. The performing properties (foaming and wetting behavior) of N-alkyl-N-methylaldonamide-type surfactant prove that they can make suitable candidates as ecologically favorable surfactants.
