On the Lipophilic Nature of Oxyalkyl Groups in Alkyl Ether SulphatesEffective carbon numbers and methylene group equivalent values for tetradecane sulphonates containing oxyalkyl groups as substituents as well as and for alkyl ether sulphates containing oxyalkyl groups in the chain have been calculated. These oxyethyl groups show lipophilic character, at least up to an oxethylation degree of 10. Via ME values effective carbon numbers, critical concentrations for micelle formation and HLB-values for alkyl ether sulphates can be calculated. HLB group numbers depending on oxalkylation degree are tabulated; the known value of + 0,33 for —OCH2CH2— is valid only for nonionic surfactants.
