Colloid-chemical effects in the oxidative destruction of isononylphenol ethoxylate

Abstract

The possibility of the oxidative destruction of isononylphenol ethoxylates in micellar solutions with critical micellization concentrations of up to 3.5 by the Ruff system is established in principle. It is shown that iron hydroxocomplex polymerization, which leads to the formation of large colloid particles but does not lower the efficiency of a surfactant oxidation, can proceed in a solution at pH 3-5
