Özet:

 Alcohols like 1-hexanol C₆H₁₄OH and 1-octanol C₈H₁₈OH possess both a hydrophobic alkyl tail the hexyl group and a hydrophilic hydroxyl head, allowing them to interact with both water and oil phases. This dual affinity helps reduce the interfacial tension between oil and water, promoting the formation of stable nanoemulsions of hexadecane in water, as confirmed by zeta potential measurements. The effects of non-ionic surfactants, 1-hexanol and 1-octanol on oil nanodroplets are examined through concentration-dependent fluorescence measurements using Nile Red. This fluorescence spectrum also provides valuable information for estimating the critical micelle concentration CMC, which is crucial for understanding surfactant behavior, as well as the stability and performance of nanoemulsions. Optimizing oil nanoemulsions containing alcohols is essential for various applications, including drug delivery, emulsification, enhanced oil recovery EOR, food processing, cosmetics and energy storage technologies.
