sodium dodecyl sulfate

The paper presents the results of the study of the statics of adsorption of surface-active substances from model solutions by activated carbon and zeolite. The results of photometric determination of the concentration of anionic surfactants before and after adsorption are presented. The results of adsorption capacity calculations are presented. The experimental results using the program (Langmuir 1.03) were numerically calculated. Sorption isotherms of sodium dodecyl sulfate indicate the mechanism of monomolecular physical adsorption.

X-ray phase analysis and IR spectroscopy data have confirmed a gel-like nature of sodium dodecyl sulfate micellar phase induced by sodium chloride and salicylic acid additives. This phase essentially consists of water (ωH2O > 50 %), which is connected with main components of the micellar-extraction system through intermolecular hydrogen bonds. Capacity of such micellar phase to quantitatively extract of proteins (R > 94 %) with saving of their catalytic activities and dispersity was found.
