Abstract:

A kind of photosensitive anionic surfactant was synthesized using 4-butylaniline, ethyl bromacetate andphenol. Its structure was identified by 1HNMR and its properties were also measured. It was found that photoisomerization of the surfactant occurred under the irradiation of ultraviolet light and its time to make balance was about 40 min. After the irradiation of ultraviolet light, the values of cmc, γcmc and Amin increased and the values of Гmax, pC20 and the contact angle on thecalcite surface decreased.

Key words: photosensitive, azobenzene, surfactant, photoisomerization, surface tension, contact angle
