      Selective separation of dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide from other cationic and nonionic surfactants
      A. MOHAMMAD*, N. HAQ (*Analytical Research Laboratory, Department of Applied Chemistry, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh-202002, U. P., India; mohammadali4u@rediffmail.com)

      J. Planar Chromatogr. 20, 347-351 (2007). TLC of DTAB on soil, silica gel, alumina, and kieselguhr with fifteen mobile phases, such as aqueous solutions of ammonium sulfate and urea, with chamber saturation for 10 min. Detection by spraying with modified Dragendorff reagent. Among the systems studied the best system for selective separation of DTAB from multicomponent mixtures of other surfactants was kieselguhr - 0.1 M ammonium sulfate. Semi-quantitative determination by spot-area measurement.

      (Analysis of nonionic surfactants by reversed-phase thin-layer chromatography
      P. LI (Li Peiji), Y. WANG (Wang Ying), (Inst. Chem., Academia Sinica, Beijing, P.R. China)

      Chromatogr. 5, 191-193 (1957) (Sepu). TLC of nonionic surfactants with different hydrophobic groups and polyethylene glycols of different molecular weight on silanized silica with methanol - water 8:2 and 7:3. Detection by iodine vapor. Quantification by densitometry.

      Classification: 35a

      Separation of some nonylphenyl ethylene oxide oligomers according to the length of the ethylene oxide chain
      T. CSERHATI, (Central Res. Inst. for Chem., Hungarian Acad. of Sci., P.O. Box 17, H-1525 Budapest, Hungary)

      J. Planar Chromatogr. 6, 70-73 (1993). TLC of non-ionic surfactants (e.g. nonylphenyl ethylene oxide oligomers) according to the length of the ethylene oxide chain on aluminum oxide with chloroform - acetonitrile mixtures. The optimum separation of pairs of surfactant oligomers with the longest ethylene oxide chains required eluents of the highest strength (highest acetonitrile concentration).

      Use of a glutamic acid-containing aqueous-organic mobile phase for on-plate separation, detection, and identification of cationic and non-ionic surfactants by thin-layer chromatography
      A. MOHAMMAD*, H. SHAHAB (*Anal. Res. Lab., Dept. of Applied Chem., Fac. of Eng. and Tech., Aligarh Muslim Univ., Aligarh-202002, India)

      Acta Chrom. 17, 272-291 (2006). TLC on silica gel with 0.1 M glutamic acid – methanol – acetone 1:1:1 has been found to be highly suitable for separation and identification of cationic and non-ionic surfactants. Visualization by use of Draggendorf reagent or iodine vapour. Spectro-photometric determination of tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide at 670 nm after the spot extraction. The method has been used for identification of tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide and Triton TX-100 in saline water, river water, and domestic waste water. The effects of sample pH, polarity of the alcohol and nature of the amino acid in the mobile phase, and the presence of alumina, kieselguhr, or cellulose in the silica gel layer have been examined.
