? 2022In this work, the interaction between the negatively charged surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and partially N-reacetylated chitosan (RA-CHI), which is soluble at pH range up to pH 12, is studied in a wide pH range including alkaline media by light scattering (LS) and isothermic titration calorimetry (ITC). It is shown that in the weakly alkaline medium (pH 7.4), RA-CHI/SDS interaction is exothermic and cooperative. This interaction is found to be coupled with proton transfer from the buffer substance to chitosan as it is revealed by the dependence of the measured heat release on the ionization enthalpy of the buffer. At higher pH values (pH > 8), another mechanism of interaction is observed that include SDS micellization induced by hydrophobic interactions with polymer segments, so that no phase separation occurred in these mixtures. The results obtained can contribute to expand the knowledge about application of chitosan for preparation of pharmaceutical and cosmetic compositions containing anionic surfactants.
