Probing Salt-Induced Changes in the Self-Assembly Behavior of Gemini Surfactants Using Scattering and Spectroscopic Techniques.
This study investigates how Gemini surfactants (GSs) with varying alkyl chain lengths and spacer architectures regulate interfacial behavior, self-assembly, and the photophysical response of Merocyanine 540 (MC540) in aqueous media. Tensiometric measurements demonstrate that increasing hydrophobic chain length leads to...
