Abstract

Effects of Cetyl Trimethyl Ammonium Bromide (CTAB), which is a kind of cationic surfactants, and Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS), which is a kind of anionic surfactants on the anodic formation of nanoporous niobium oxide were compared. The addition of SDS could protect the surface from dissolution for long time, leading to the formation of niobium oxide with a double thickness (~400 nm) compared to that prepared without surfactant, whereas dissolution seriously occurred in the solution containing CTAB. The different behaviors were attributed to the interaction between the surfactants with positive (or negative) charge and positively charged niobium oxide.

본 연구에서는 양극 산화를 통해 얻어지는 다공성 니오븀 산화물 제조에 양이온 계면활성제인 Cetyl Trimethyl Ammonium Bromide (CTAB)와 음이온 계면활성제인 Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS)의 영향을 비교 관찰하였다. SDS가 전해질에 첨가되어 제조된 다공성 니오븀 산화 막은 표면에 장시간 용출이 발생하지 않았고, 계면활성제가 첨가되지 않고 제조된 다공성 니오븀 산화막의 두께와 비교 하였을 때 두께가 두 배 이상 증가된 값을 얻을 수 있었다. 하지만 CTAB가 전해질에 첨가되어 제조된 다공성 니오븀 산화물의 표면에는 용출이 일어났다. 이러한 차이점을 양성으로 대전된 니오븀산화물과 음이온/또는 양이온 계면활성제 사이의 상호작용에 근거하여 설명하였다.
