Title

Neutron reflection studies on adsorption of lauroyl-L-carnitine at the silicon dioxide/water interface

Abstract

Acyl-L-carnitine is a new type of surfactants that have been designed and synthesized recently due to their novel antimicrobial and compatible properties. As their biological functions originate from their behavior as surfactants, this work aims to characterize how they adsorb at the silicon oxide/water interface by neutron reflection. As this interface has been widely used to screen adsorption from a wide range of surfactants, the results will enable us to establish the performance of this group of surfactants through direct comparison. We request 3 days of D17 or Figaro to complete this proposal.
