Abstract
⺠Long alkyl chain surfactants with two or three quaternary ammonium groups have been synthesized. ⺠The divalent surfactants are of the type CnH2n+1N+(CH3)2-C2H4-N+(CH3)3 2Brâ, n = 18, 20, and 22. ⺠The divalent surfactants form rod-like micelles (ca. 150 nm). ⺠The trivalent surfactants form ellipsoidal micelles ranging from 20 to 90 nm in average size.
