X-ray reflectivity study of the adsorption of azacrown ethers and palmitic acid at the hexane-water interface — •Gutberlet Thomas1, Wojciechowski Kamil2, Tikhonov Alexey3, Schlossman Mark4, and Buffle Jacques21Lab. f. Neutr. Scattering, ETHZ & PSI, 5232 Villigen PSI, Switzerland — 2CABE, Dept. of Anal., Inorg. and Appl.

Azacrown ethers substituted with different alkyl chain length (decyl, palmitoyl, tetracosanoyl) and palmitic acid have been investigated at the aqueous-organic hexane-water interface by means of x-ray reflectivity. These systems are of interest in Permeation Liquid Membrane techniques to separate aqueous solutions by a hydrophobic membrane to select chemical species. The x-ray reflectivity measurements reveal the presence of a dense interfacial layer at the hexane-water interface. The longer alkyl chain substituted azacrown ethers show a diminished interfacial roughness. Here, the experimental set-up and results will be presented in detail and discussed.
