Abstract:

Surface-active substances known as "bio-based surfactants" come from a variety of sources, including plants, animals, microorganisms, marine life, synthetics, and semi-synthetics. Bio-based surfactants have a variety of uses, including in food, personal care, pharmaceutical, and industrial formulations as well as in agricultural and oil field chemicals and institutional and industrial cleaning. Nowadays, there is a significant demand for bio-based surfactants on the market as a result of the strict environmental rules that governments across the globe have placed on the use of toxins in detergents and growing environmental concerns among consumers. Due to their low toxicity and biodegradability, bio-based surfactants are acknowledged as a more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional petrochemical-based surfactants. Additional research going on for the creation of innovative biodegradable surfactants as a result, either by biological processes or from renewable resources (bio-catalysis or fermentation are included). Many such varieties, their properties, clinical assessment of surfactant formulations, use of bio-based surfactants, industrial state-of-the-art, and prospective markets for bio-based surfactants manufacturing are discussed in this paper.

Full text

Abstract:

Green enhanced oil recovery (GEOR) is a chemical enhanced oil recovery (EOR) method involving the injection of specific green chemicals (surfactants/alcohols/polymers) that effectively displace oil because of their phase-behaviour properties, which decrease the interfacial tension (IFT) between the displacing liquid and the oil. In this process, the primary displacing liquid slug is a complex chemical system called a micellar solution, containing green surfactants, co-surfactants, oil, electrolytes and water. The surfactant slug is relatively small, typically 10% pore volume (PV). It may be followed by a mobility buffer such as polymer. The total volume of the polymer solution is typically ~1 PV. This study was conducted to examine the effectiveness of the combination of microbial by-products Bacillus subtilise strain JF-2 bio-surfactant and alcohol in recovering residual oil. It also considered whether bio-surfactant capability could be improved by blending it with non-ionic green surfactant. The study consisted of a phase behaviour study, IFT measurement and core-flooding experiments. In the phase behaviour study, it was found that 0.5% alkyl polyglycosides (APG) and 0.5–1.00% of butanol at 2% NaCl gave stable middle phase micro-emulsion. Non-ionic (APG 264) and anionic (bio-surfactant) mixtures are able to form stable middle phase micro-emulsion. Based on IFT reduction, two low concentrations (40 and 60 mg/l) of JF-2 bio-surfactant were identified where IFT values were low. The bio-surfactant and butanol formulation produced a total ~39.3% of oil initially in place (OIIP).

Abstract:

This study explores the impact of epoxidized palm oil (EPO) content and surfactant type on the mechanical properties of polyurethane foams. The resilience, hardness, and compressive strength of the foams were systematically analyzed at different NCO/OH molar ratios. The findings revealed that increasing EPO content generally decreased both hardness and resilience values, indicating enhanced viscoelastic properties due to the plasticizing effect of EPO's hydrocarbon chains. However, specific surfactants significantly influenced these mechanical properties. Concentrol STB PU-2254 and Tegostab® B82001 VE surfactants enhanced compressive strength by promoting a compact cellular structure with smaller, more numerous cells, effectively distributing loads and counteracting the softening effect of high EPO content. Conversely, the use of Tegostab® B8462 resulted in reduced hardness due to increased porosity from larger cell formation. At an NCO/OH ratio of 1.0, higher pMDI content improved compressive strength by increasing hard segment formation. These results underscore the importance of surfactant selection and NCO/OH ratio optimization in tailoring the mechanical properties of polyurethane foams, offering valuable insights for their application-specific design and optimization.

Abstract:

The chemical that lowers surface tension is called a surfactant. Surfactants are utilised as raw ingredients in the production of a wide range of products, including soap, surface-active ionic liquids, nanoparticles, carbon nanotube dispersions, and cosmetics. Surfactants are essential for cleaning, conditioning, and foam stabilization in shampoos, conditioners, and styling solutions. The need for novel and environmentally friendly surfactants is growing along with the cosmetics sector. Current patterns include Bio-based Surfactants, Mild Surfactants, Sustainable Processes. Amino acid and surfactant interactions are crucial for a variety of chemical and biological processes.Their amphiphilic nature—which is defined by the existence of both hydrophobic (repellent) and hydrophilic (attracting) areas—is the main factor affecting the interactions between amino acids and surfactants. It emphasises how the interactions between amino acids and surfactants, which are essential to several biological and chemical processes, are based on their amphiphilic character.

Abstract:

Oligomeric surfactants display the novel properties of low surface activity, low critical micellar concentration and enhanced viscosity, but no CO2 switchable oligomeric surfactants have been developed so far. The introduction of CO2 can convert tertiary amine reversibly to quaternary ammonium salt, which causes switchable surface activity. In this study, epoxidized soybean oil was selected as a raw material to synthesize a CO2-responsive oligomeric surfactant. After addition and removal of CO2, the conductivity analyzing proves that the oligomeric surfactant had a good response to CO2 stimulation. The viscosity of the oligomeric surfactant solution increased obviously after sparging CO2, but returned to its initial low viscosity in the absence of CO2. This work is expected to open a new window for the study of bio-based CO2-stimulated oligomeric surfactants.

Abstract:

This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the effectiveness of surfactants in enhancing the remediation of contaminated soils. The study examines recent and older research on the use of effluent treatment techniques combined with synthetic surface-active agents, bio-surfactants, and various categories of surfactants for soil reclamation purposes. The main purpose of this review is to evaluate the effectiveness of surfactants in enhancing the remediation of contaminated soils. The research question is to explore the mechanisms through which surfactants enhance soil remediation and to assess the potential benefits and limitations of surfactant-based remediation methods. This review was conducted through an extensive literature search of relevant articles published in scientific databases. The articles were selected based on their relevance to the topic and their methodological rigor. Types of possible soil pollutants and the requirements of specific surfactants were discussed. Structural relationships between pollutant and surfactants were described thoroughly. Extensive study revealed that surfactants have shown great potential in enhancing the remediation of contaminated soils. Surfactants can improve the solubility and mobility of hydrophobic contaminants and facilitate their removal from soil. However, the effectiveness of surfactant-based remediation methods depends on several factors, including the type of contaminant, the soil properties, and the surfactant concentration and type. Surfactant-enhanced soil remediation can be an effective and sustainable method for addressing soil contamination. However, the optimal conditions for using surfactants depend on the specific site characteristics and contaminant properties, and further research is needed to optimize the use of surfactants in soil remediation.

Abstract:

Natural surfactants are surface-active molecules synthesized from renewable resources (i.e., plants, animals, or microorganisms) and possess properties comparable to conventional surfactants, making them an environmentally friendly potential alternative to petrochemical surfactants. Additionally, they exhibit biological properties such as anti-microbial properties, biodegradability, and less toxicity, allowing their use in everyday products with minimal risk to human health and the environment. Based on their mode of production, natural surfactants can be classified into first-generation or bio-based surfactants and second-generation or biosurfactants, although their definition may vary depending on the author in the literature. This review offers an extensive classification of bio-based surfactants and biosurfactants, focusing on their composition, natural sources, production methods, and potential applications across various industries. Furthermore, the main challenges and future perspectives are discussed.

Abstract:

One of the types of pollution of aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems is pollution by surface-active substances (surfactants).With the awareness of the potential danger of conventional surfactants on the environment and human health, there is a growing interest in the development of bio-based surfactants in personal hygiene products. These substances are considered safer, are abundant, biodegradable, and biocompatible. The study of bio-based surfactants shampoos consisting only of natural organic components is of particular interest. The objective of the research: assessment of the environmental impact and biological activity of bio-based shampoo using standard biotests: germination and growth of black bean plants (Vícia fába) and behavioral reactions of sludge worm (Tubifex tubifex). The chemical composition of bio-based shampoos is analyzed; it is shown that derivatives of natural oils are surfactants, which can serve as a substitute for traditional synthetic detergents. The effect of aqueous shampoo solutions of various concentrations on the biotest of Vícia fába showed an acceleration of biomass growth and its qualitative change, an increase in the amount of chlorophyll and ascorbic acid. Micromorphological method revealed violations at the cellular level of root system development on the 14th day of germination. With the help of a biotest on the behavioral reactions of Tubifex tubifex, the toxic effect was evaluated. Significant biological activity has been established, which, combined with exposure to surfactants, can lead to environmental consequences. It is concluded that the mass replacement of traditional synthetic detergents with bio-organic ones will practically not change the impact on the environment.

Abstract:

Surfactants are commonly use as a foaming agents contained in soap products. Consequently, the type of surfactant used is a synthetic product that is difficult to degrade by nature fate. In addition to environmental problems, prolonged use of these products can cause health problems, such as irritation in the form of dry, scaly, itchy skin, to red rashes. Synthetic surfactants used in industry are also petroleum derivatives. This fact makes the sustainability of the industry threatened due to the increasingly critical oil reserves. Based on these problems, it is important to study alternative synthetic surfactants that are more environmentally friendly, safe for health, and abundantly available in nature. In this study, the potential of saponins from the petiole of the Ambon banana (Musa paradisiaca var. sapientum L.) was studied as a natural surfactant in hand soap (bio-hand soap). The purpose of this study was to study the effect of the variable concentration of ethanol solvent and immersion time on the amount of saponin extract yield and the formulation of bio-hand soap. The results showed that the highest extract yield of Ambon banana petiole extract could be achieved using ethanol solvent at a concentration of 80% and a maceration time of 48 hours. Based on the quality tests on bio-hand soap products that have been carried out, formula 1 (20% saponins), 2 (30% saponins), and 3 (40% saponins) have color, shape, anti-bacterial agent, and pH values that are following SNI 2588:2017. The formula that is considered the most optimum for the production of bio-hand soap is Formula 2. This is based on the highest foam stability value, which is 67.56%.

Abstract:

Recently, vegetable oil-derived monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) have predominantly been utilized in producing bio-based surfactants, resulting in low bioresource utilization and high separation costs. Although polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are abundant and often co-exist with MUFAs, bio-based surfactants synthesized from PUFA-rich feedstocks have been less researched due to concerns regarding their interfacial performance. In this study, a novel series of PUFA-based zwitterionic surfactants with strong interfacial activity was synthesized from waste vegetable oils via an eco-friendly three-step process, optimized through an orthogonal experimental design. The structures and conversion rates of the surfactants were confirmed using GC-MS, LC-MS, and ESI-MS. At 0.5 g/L and 3.0 g/L (typical concentrations often used in most oil fields), the bio-based surfactants derived from waste soybean oil (PUFA-to-MUFA ratio ≈ 2.11, C18:2, and C18:1 in large contents) could reduce the interfacial tension between Daqing crude oil and simulated formation groundwater to an ultra-low level of ~10−3 mN/m. These results confirm our hypothesis that bio-based zwitterionic surfactants derived from PUFA-rich feedstocks possess excellent interfacial activity, providing a potential sustainable option to be considered for chemically enhanced oil recovery.

Abstract:

Surfactant is one of the major consuming auxiliaries in textile processing. The rising demand for petroleum-based surfactants is in focus and it is tremendously utilized to fulfil the need for surfactants in textile industries. These petroleum-based surfactants are one of the major pollutants of textile wastewater. Many attempts have been made to replace this with low toxicity to make the process sustainable. The present investigation works on the same objective to replace the petroleum-based surfactant from desizing by using soapnut extract as a wetting agent. The process was optimised by using a modern statistical technique of Response Surface Methodology [RSM]. The initial designing was conducted using 10 g/l soapnut extract and 2% enzyme for 30 min at 75 °C and found satisfactory results. Additional desizing experiments were performed to optimize the process using RSM with weight loss as the primary outcome. An optimised desizing recipe provided by DOE numerical optimisation, viz., a concentration of 10 g/l soapnut extract and 2% enzyme at 75 °C for 40 min, was performed to validate. The findings demonstrate that optimum weight loss (6.58%) and desirable levels of absorbency (14 s), whiteness (73.52), yellowness (22.84 indices, bending length (2.1 cm), Flexural rigidity (98.13 mg.cm), while minimally affecting tensile strength (10.77). Enzymatic desizing with synthetic or soapnut-extracted wetting agents yields identical results and satisfies performance standards for industrial use. The Sustainable way of enzymatic desizing of cotton with bio-surfactant extracted from soapnut may be the green alternative to synthetic surfactant-based desizing.

Abstract:

Practical examples showcase the key role of plant-based lipids in the design of innovative sustainable specialty ingredients. Great diversity in plant origins and chemical transformations leads to great molecular diversity and explains why bio-based lipids are involved in broad ingredient categories such as biodegradable emollients, environmentally friendly surfactants, rheology modifiers and active ingredients. Choosing lipid structure, with varying fatty chain length, saturation level and branching, determines ingredient functionality and usage, as these vary, for instance in the case of surfactants, solubilizing, wetting, foaming and emulsifying properties (oil-in-water or water-in-oil). The lipid structure also impacts the ingredients’ final solid or liquid appearance. Now ready-to-use ingredients can be created and we can innovate with cold processable new cosmetic formulation concepts. Perhaps most importantly, optimal selection of lipid structure and composition can also drive consumer benefits in cosmetic ingredients, especially, the final sensory experience (for excipients) and biological efficacy (for active ingredients). Bio-based lipids lead to new ingredients with augmented performance and sensoriality.

Abstract:

Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (FAME) or palm oil methyl ester is one of the palm oil derivatives in which one of the anionic surfactants that can be generated from it is methyl ester sulfonate (MES). This bio-based surfactant can reduce the interfacial tension (IFT) between oil and water. To produce a bio-based polymeric surfactant, sulfonate groups from MES were grafted onto polymer chains. Palm oil methyl ester was reacted with sulfuric acid (H2SO4) to synthesize MES. Afterwards, MES was reacted with the Ethyl Acrylate (EA) monomer to synthesize polymeric surfactant. Investigating this route to produce a bio-based polymeric surfactant has become the novelty of this study. This study showed that the best polymerization result was obtained at a mole ratio of MES to EA (1:0.5) with the highest viscosity of 14.47 mm2/s. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) analysis showed 0.5% at a mole ratio of MES to EA (1:0.5) which corresponded to the lowest interfacial tension (IFT) of 1.95 x 10-3 mN/m. Meanwhile, the contact angle gradually decreased from 58.44 to 11.79°. The polymeric surfactant, furthermore, was analyzed using FTIR and H-NMR and successfully confirmed the formation of bio-based polymeric surfactant. The core flooding experiment found that approximately 16.57% of oil could be recovered. The results of the study revealed a good potential of the polymeric surfactant to be applied in chemical enhanced oil recovery (CEOR).

Abstract:

This study explores the efficiency of photovoltaic thermal (PVT) system using bio-nanofluid based on virgin coconut oil (VCO). This research proposes bio-nanofluid as dispersion media because of their potential in medium to high temperature applications in terms of thermal output, biodegradable, and renewable. Graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) were prepared in a mass fraction of 0.1% wt. Then, the ratio for the surfactant was a 1:1 nanoparticle. The surfactants used in this study were Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), and Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). The two-stage method was used for the bio-nanofluid synthesis. Further, the samples were tested for physical and thermophysical properties. From the stability test, we discovered stable dispersion from VCO-GNP-PVP bio-nanofluid sample during the 30 days of testing. The bio-nanofluid samples also presented an increase in thermal conductivity following its stability, with the highest conductivity value (0.158 W/m.K) observed on the VCO-GNP-PVP sample. The efficiency test results on additive surfactant and flow rate show the optimum flow rate of 7 mL/s on VCO-GNP-PVP bio-nanofluid, with thermal and electric efficiency of 25.169% and 8.632%, respectively.

ABSTRACT: - Non-ionic surfactants have emerged as crucial agents in textile production because of their unique physicochemical characteristics, such as neutrality, low toxicity, and good compatibility with various chemicals and fibres. Their amphiphilic nature allows them to wet, emulsify, disperse, and stabilize well, making them suitable for application at different stages of textile processing especially in pre-treatment, dyeing, and finishing. This review discusses the structural diversity of non-ionic surfactants and examines their functionality in enhancing fabric quality, dye uniformity, process efficiency, and environmental compliance. Individual surfactant types like alcohol ethoxylates, fatty acid ethoxylates, sugar-based surfactants, and block copolymers are explored for their individual contributions to textile treatment. In addition, the paper discusses new developments such as bio-based surfactants, thermos responsive materials, and nanostructured finishes that broaden the application of non-ionic surfactants in smart textiles and green manufacturing. Environmental factors such as biodegradability, aquatic toxicity, and regulatory limitations are also discussed. By summarizing available literature and emphasizing new trends, the review of this article should present an integral view of the mechanism, advantage, and future outlook of non-ionic surfactants in contemporary textile production. The extended progress of non-ionic surfactants will be crucial to address the requirements of the industry for high performance, sustainability, and process innovation.

Abstract:

Droplet microfluidics can produce highly tailored microparticles whilst retaining monodispersity. However, these systems often require lengthy optimisation, commonly based on a trial-and-error approach, particularly when using bio-instructive, polymeric surfactants. Here, micropipette manipulation methods were used to optimise the concentration of bespoke polymeric surfactants to produce biodegradable (poly(d,l-lactic acid) (PDLLA)) microparticles with unique, bio-instructive surface chemistries. The effect of these three-dimensional surfactants on the interfacial tension of the system was analysed. It was determined that to provide adequate stabilisation, a low level (0.1% (w/v)) of poly(vinyl acetate-co-alcohol) (PVA) was required. Optimisation of the PVA concentration was informed by micropipette manipulation. As a result, successful, monodisperse particles were produced that maintained the desired bio-instructive surface chemistry.

Abstract:

Despite the abundance of palm-based residues generated, the by-products from thermochemical processing such as bio-oil may create value-added products to the palm industry. The palm-based derived bio-oil contains high aromatic compounds, which are active ingredients in the bio-pesticides formulation. Therefore, this study investigated the formulation of the bio-pesticide from this bio-oil and determines their effect on insect-pest in oil palm such as Metisa plana walker bagworm. Prior the formulation, preliminary evaluation of the compatibility between bio-oil and surfactants such as Tween 20 and Tween 80 as the bio-pesticides ingredient were evaluated using the ternary phase diagram. The compatibility results showed the best formulation is at 20% of surfactant. Based on these conditions, the experiment was formulated using an active ingredient (AI) called azadirachtin extracted from neem seed. The formulated bio-pesticide was tested for its effectiveness towards the mortality of the bagworm. The results showed that the formulated bio-pesticide was able to repel 50% of the bagworm population, with a lethal concentration (LC50) of 22.1 g/mL showing a good indicator as an effective repellent. Hence, this study provided new knowledge for waste management towards zero waste strategy for a better environment and sustainability.

Abstract:

Photocatalytic water splitting into hydrogen is considered as one of the key solutions to the current demand for eco-responsible energy. To improve the efficiency and sustainability of this process, the development of a TiO2-based photoanode by adding bio-sourced surfactants to the sol–gel preparation method has been considered. Three different polymeric biosurfactants (GB, GC, and BIO) have been tested, giving rise to three different materials being structurally and morphologically characterized by XRD, Rietveld refinement, BET, SEM, AFM, and XPS, which was completed by light absorption, photocatalytic (Pilkington test), electronic (EIS and C-AFM), and photoelectrochemical (cyclic voltammetry) measurements. Correlations between the structure/morphology of materials and their functional properties have been established. One specific surfactant has been proven as the most suitable to lead to materials with optimized photoelectrochemical performance in direct relation with their photocatalytic properties essentially controlled by their specific surface area.

Abstract:

Surfactants for enhanced oil recovery are generally made from non-renewable petroleum sulfonates and their prices are relatively expensive, so it is necessary to synthesis the bio-based surfactants that are renewable and ecofriendly. The surfactant solution can reduce the interfacial tension (IFT) between oil and water while vinyl acetate monomer has an ability to increase the viscosity as a mobility control. Therefore, polymeric surfactant has both combination properties in reducing the oil/water IFT and increasing the viscosity of the aqueous solution simultaneously. Based on the study, the Critical Micelle Concentration (CMC) of Polymeric Surfactant was at 0.5% concentration with an IFT of 7.72x10-2 mN/m. The best mole ratio of methyl ester sulfonate to vinyl acetate for polymeric surfactant synthesis was 1:0.5 with an IFT of 6.7x10-3 mN/m. Characterization of the product using FTIR and HNMR has proven the creation of polymeric surfactant. Based on the wettability alteration study, it confirmed that the product has an ability to alter from the initial oil-wet to water-wet quartz surface. In conclusion, the polymeric surfactant has ultralow IFT and could be an alternative surfactant for chemical flooding because the IFT value met with the required standard for chemical flooding ranges from 10-2 to 10-3 mN/m.Keywords: Enhanced Oil recovery, Interfacial Tension, Methyl Ester Sulfonate, Polymeric surfactant, vinyl acetate

Abstract:

This article includes an updated review of the classification, uses and side effects of surfactants for their application in the cosmetic, personal care and pharmaceutical industries. Based on their origin and composition, surfactants can be divided into three different categories: (i) synthetic surfactants; (ii) bio-based surfactants; and (iii) microbial biosurfactants. The first group is the most widespread and cost-effective. It is composed of surfactants, which are synthetically produced, using non-renewable sources, with a final structure that is different from the natural components of living cells. The second category comprises surfactants of intermediate biocompatibility, usually produced by chemical synthesis but integrating fats, sugars or amino acids obtained from renewable sources into their structure. Finally, the third group of surfactants, designated as microbial biosurfactants, are considered the most biocompatible and eco-friendly, as they are produced by living cells, mostly bacteria and yeasts, without the intermediation of organic synthesis. Based on the information included in this review it would be interesting for cosmetic, personal care and pharmaceutical industries to consider microbial biosurfactants as a group apart from surfactants, needing specific regulations, as they are less toxic and more biocompatible than chemical surfactants having formulations that are more biocompatible and greener.

Abstract:

Knowledge-based policy making in the field of bio-based economy needs two elements: (i) a monitoring system for assessing the historical developments of bio-based industry and (ii) foresight capacities to provide prospects for the bio-based industry in the future and how it can contribute to achieving different targets. However, significant knowledge gaps in both areas exist, especially regarding the markets of bio-based materials in general and bio-based chemicals in particular. Against this background, a new consistent framework for the representation of the value chains of bio-based materials in the EU and its Member States is developed, i.e., BioMAT. This article aims to present the BioMAT database which (i) is used to track historical developments in the markets for bio-based chemicals and the demand for feedstocks and (ii) enables the construction of the BioMAT model to make future projections. The developed BioMAT database compilation procedure is described in detail. Results reveal that the production of bio-based chemicals in the EU reached 43 million tons or 14% of the total output volume of the organic chemical industry in 2018. The main application of bio-based chemicals is biofuels, followed by agrochemicals and surfactants. The main feedstocks are plant oils and starch.

Abstract:

Biological surfactants are an alternative to synthetic surfactants due to their unique properties, high degree of biodegradability, low toxicity, low cost. The paper summarises the results of studies of micellar and solubilising properties of bio-surfactants on the example of unfractionated rhamnolipids produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa with a molar ratio of mono- and diramnolipid in the mixture of ≈ 2/3. The critical micellization concentration (cmc) of aqueous solutions of rhamnolipids was measured by tensiometry, conductometry, dynamic light scattering, and diffusion NMR. The cmc values obtained by various methods lie in the range of 0.1 - 0.35 g/L. Based on selective measurements of the self-diffusion coefficients (sdc) of molecules, carried out by diffusion NMR, the solubilizing properties of rhamnolipids were studied depending on their concentration in solution; known toxic environmental pollutants, aromatic hydrocarbons - benzene and phenol, were taken as solubilisates. Based on the measurement results within the framework of the two-phase model, the distribution coefficients of the solubilizate between the micellar (solubilized) and free (in the aqueous phase) states were calculated. Micellar solubilisation is detected by changes in the sdc of solubilisate molecules depending on the concentration of rhamnolipid in solution. It was found that at surfactant concentrations lower than the cmc, the values of the sdc of solubilisate molecules do not depend on the presence of surfactant in the solutions. With increasing concentration of rhamnolipid in solutions, the sdc of solubilisate molecules sharply decreases and becomes equal to the sdc of rhamnolipid micelles at high concentrations. The proportion of solubilised benzene and phenol molecules approaches 100% at a concentration of rhamnolipid in solution of 100-200 g/l, indicating high solubilisation efficiency.

Abstract:

Recent advancements in polymer materials have enabled the synthesis of bio-based monomers from renewable resources, promoting sustainable alternatives to fossil-based materials. This study presents a novel zwitterionic surfactant, SF, derived from 10-undecenoic acid obtained from castor oil through a four-step reaction, achieving a yield of 78%. SF has a critical micelle concentration (CMC) of 1235 mg/L, slightly higher than the commercial anionic surfactant Rhodacal DS-4 (sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate), and effectively stabilizes monomer droplets, leading to excellent conversion and stable latex formation. The zwitterionic groups in SF enhance adhesion to hydrophilic substrates (glass, stainless steel, and skin). Films produced with SF exhibit outstanding water resistance, with only 18.48% water uptake after 1800 min, compared to 81% for the control using Rhodacal DS-4. Notably, SF maintains low water uptake across various concentrations, minimizing water penetration. Thus, the synthesized SF demonstrates improved adhesive properties and excellent water resistance in emulsion polymerization applications, highlighting its potential as a sustainable, high-performance alternative to petrochemical surfactants.

Abstract:

Polymers and surfactants are used in many technological and industrial applications such as the manufacture of functional materials and coatings, personal care and pharmaceutical products, food science, paints, anti-icing fluids, tertiary oil recovery and the paper industry. Polymer–surfactant mixtures are particularly important in shampoos and conditioners. However, as in almost every other industry over the past five or more decades, the performance of hair care formulations has been significantly improved by the use of petrochemical-derived ingredients. As a result, cosmetic formulations, and hair care formulations in particular, have been based primarily on polymers and surfactants that are neither renewable, nor derived from environmentally friendly processes, nor have a positive environmental impact. This contrasts with the extensive use of natural and renewable products, mainly plant extracts, in cosmetics in ancient times. Therefore, the substitution of currently used ingredients with others of natural origin hasbeen a top priority for the cosmetic industry over the last two decades, and in order to achieve greater consumer acceptance, it is crucial to maintain and, where possible, improve the technical performance of such products. This paper describes the complexities and challenges of developing greener shampoo and conditioner ingredients and formulations to meet current and future needs, and outlines a methodological approach based on model hair surfaces and a selection of appropriate experimental and numericaltechniques to achieve our goals. Some encouraging technical routes using biosurfactants, biopolymers and bio-based polymers are presented, along with the significant opportunity to obtain a wide range of green ingredients through molecular design and well-controlled biotechnological processes. Similar concerns apply to other cosmetic products such as waxes, fragrances, bleaching agents, etc.

Abstract:

Abstract The establishment of a Bio-OSD plant in Indonesia represents a strategic initiative to utilize renewable and environmentally friendly palm oil-based surfactants as alternatives to commercial oil spill dispersant (OSD) products. Determining the optimal plant location is essential. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of Bio-OSD plant locations by considering three alternatives: Jakarta, Gresik, and Medan. The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method was employed to assess critical criteria, including access to raw materials, land costs, availability of transportation facilities, government and community support, and other relevant factors. Data was collected through interviews and AHP questionnaires filled out by four experts, then analyzed using Superdecision software version 3.2.0. The analysis results indicate that Gresik is the best location with a score of 0.45529, followed by Medan and Jakarta. Gresik offers various advantages, including ease of obtaining permits, good transportation infrastructure, adequate availability of electricity and water, and support from local government and communities. Although the land and labor costs in Gresik are relatively high, the long-term benefits and operational efficiency make it the most viable location for the Bio-OSD plant establishment. Based on the AHP evaluation results, Gresik is the optimal location for establishing a Bio-OSD plant, supporting the sustainability and operational efficiency of oil companies in Indonesia.

Abstract:

This study explores the hydrogen bond-mediated association between chitosan (CHI) and alkyl polyglucoside (APG), a bio-based surfactant, in acidic conditions with varying ionic strengths. Unlike conventional polyelectrolyte-surfactant interactions that depend on electrostatic forces, the association in this system relies purely on non-ionic interactions. Using UV–visible spectroscopy, phase diagrams, and quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D), the bulk phase behavior and adsorption characteristics of CHI-APG mixtures on negatively charged surfaces was studied. Results demonstrate that APG concentration controls the phase behavior, with moderate levels inducing coacervate formation, while higher ionic strengths promote this coacervation through enhanced hydrogen bonding interactions. This shift leads to the formation of a phase-separated morphology, with micron-sized coacervate droplets observable in solution. Zeta potential measurements suggest that these droplets adopt a core–shell structure, characterized by a hydrophobic core due to the surfactant’s alkyl chains and a hydrophilic shell formed by chitosan. Additionally, the coacervation process significantly enhances the adsorption of CHI-APG complexes onto solid substrates, a feature with potential applications in targeted delivery and controlled release systems. Overall, this study provides critical insights into the design of bio-based, sustainable formulations and expands the understanding of hydrogen bond-driven, non-electrostatic coacervation, relevant for applications in cosmetics, biomedical coatings, and environmentally friendly materials.

Abstract:

The use of lignin, an abundant phenolic bio-polymer, allows us to transform our fossil-based economy into a sustainable and bio-based economy. The transformation of bulk lignin into colloidal lignin particles (CLPs) with well-defined surface chemistry and morphology is a possible way to cope with the heterogeneity of lignin and use it for material applications. These CLPs can be used as emulsifiers in so-called Pickering emulsions, where solid particles stabilise the emulsion instead of environmentally harmful synthetic surfactants. This work investigates the application of CLPs produced from various bulk lignins as a stabiliser in o/w Pickering emulsions with two different oil phases (solid and liquid state). The CLPs had a primary particle size of 28 to 55 nm. They were successful in stabilising oil-in-water Pickering emulsions with high resistance to coalescence and a strong gel-like network. This enables novel applications for CLPs in the chemical and cosmetic industries, and can replace fossil-based and synthetic ingredients.
