Synthesis and Their Surface Activity of Sulfonated Type Amphoteric Surfactants from Alkyl Isobornyl Maleate

Abstract

Six kinds of sulfonated type amphoteric surfactants were prepared by addition of amino sulfonate such as taurine or N-methyl taurine to alkyl-isobornyl-maleates (AIBM).
Thus synthesized surfactants were enough investigated for the surface activities such as surface tention, penetrating power and emulsifying power.
In these amphoteric surfactants, the surface activities of adducts of taurine or N-methyl taurine and 2-ethyl-hexyl-isobornyl maleate showed almost similar surface activities as compared with DBS (sodium dodecyl-benzen-sulfonate).
