COMPLEXATION OF POLYETHYLENE-GLYCOL WITH THE SODIUM SALTS OF CITRIC AND SUCCINIC ACIDS IN THE AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS. STUDIES BY DYNAMIC LIGHT SCATTERING AND UV/VIS SPECTROPHOTOMETRY
Journal Title: JOURNAL OF ADVANCES IN CHEMISTRY - Year 2015, Vol 11, Issue 8
Abstract
Dynamic light scattering (DLS) method in combination with the UV/VIS spectrophotometry is used to study the interaction of polyethylene- glycols with a molecular weight 6000 ( PEG6000 ) with sodium salts of citric and succinic acids in aqueous solutions. The values of density, viscosity, refractive and diffusion indexes, the values of the hydrodynamic diameter, wavelength electronic absorption bands for PEG6000 aqueous solutions, their mixtures with succinic and citric acids are determined. It was shown that depending on the composition of the solutions the values of hydrodynamic diameter for aqueous solutions containing 1-5 wt.% PEG6000 and their mixtures with succinic and citric acids (~ 1 wt%) ranges from 3.6 to 5.2 nm. It is assumed that the formation of complexes with the sizes that are within the above range is due to the features of interaction and the structure of the complexes formed in solution.
