Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We synthesized new surfactants as a drag reducing agent for circulating system from the viewpoint of low environmental burden. We focused on their characteristics such as alkyl chain length and structure of hydrophilic group. The properties in aqueous solution were investigated using various physicochemical methods (Electric Conductivity (EC), Surface Tension measurement (STm), and fluid viscoelasticity (Vortex Inhibition (VI) and Viscoelastic Recoil (VR)). The solution of synthesized surfactants showed quite low critical micelle concentration (CMC) of μmol/kg order from EC and STm measurements, and the formation of worm-like micelle was promoted by the organic additive. Compared to the normal drag reducing surfactant, synthesized surfactants showed VI and VR on the wide temperature range. Among those surfactants, we also succeeded in the development of surfactants showing VI and VR at low temperature less than 0℃ in the ethylene glycol-water solution.
