Abstract:

The quantitative analysis of hydrogen peroxide dissolved in microemulsions has been worked out for concentrations ranging from 8 to 10 the the-7th M. The stability of the OW microemulsion containing lauryl acid sodium slat, cyclohexane, n-butanol and water towards hydrogen peroxide has been tested. Kinetic measurements have been made for oxygen evolution as well as the consumption of hydrogen peroxide. Enhanced oxidation of N-methyl-phenothiazine with singlet oxygen has been found in a OW microemulsion containing sodium lauryl sulfate, cyclohexane, n-butanol and water.
