Description

Surface active agents are vital components in biological systems, form key ingredients in consumer products and play an important role in many industrial processes. Exact information about micellar feature of copper (II) surfactants play a vital role in its selection in various fields such as foaming, wetting, etc. The use of treated oils as potential biocidal agents and wood preservatives and analysis of their physico-chemical studies will generate new hopes in biological and pharmacological fields. The present work highlights: 1.Synthesis of copper soaps from various untreated and treated oils. 2. Spectral studies to investigate the structural aspects and to confirm the formation of copper soaps. 3. Micellar characterizations of copper soaps have been looked into with the aid of organic solvent. For this purpose, physical properties density, molar volume, apparent molar volume have been enumerated.4.Ultrasonic investigation is being utilized to study the system. The data have been used to explain solute- solvent interactions. 5.In order to understand CMC, nature and size of the micelles formed and to test various eq., tested.6.To screen their biological activity, fungi tested.
