Abstract

The effect of cationic surfactants (cetyltrimethylammonium bromide and tetrabutylammonium iodide) and cationic polyelectrolyte polyethylenimine on the coefficient of friction μ and adhesion force p(during shear and tensile testing, respectively) at the point contacts between the individual fibers of cellulose, viscose, and cellulose acetate was studied. The comparison of these data with the results of ζ-potential and adsorption measurements enabled us to relate the nonmonotonic dependence of parameters μ and pon the surfactant concentration to the changes in electrosurface properties and the hydrophilicity or hydrophobicity of the fibers. The specific free energy of interaction U[mJ/m2] was estimated for cellulose acetate fibers.
