Abstract
Green surfactants, specifically alkyl glycosides and fatty alcohol ether carboxylic acids, are known for their biocompatibility, multiresponsiveness, and versatile applications, garnering significant attention in the realms of green and colloid chemistry. This study systematically investigated the mechanism underlying micelle formation within aqueous solutions comprising alcohol ether carboxylic acids featuring diverse EO group chain quantities (AEC-nH, where n equals 5, 7, and 9) and branched alkyl glycosides (IG). The elucidation of these mechanisms sheds light on their prospective application properties. It was observed that the self-assembly of micelles in these hybrid systems is predominantly influenced by hydrogen bonding, electrostatic interactions, and hydrophobic forces. The spherical-rod morphology of the micelles responds to the varying numbers of EO group chains, with an increased number of EO leading to the formation of rod-like micelles, which exhibit relative instability, while a decreased number of EO results in the formation of spherical micelles with relative stability. Additionally, by means of kinetic analysis, it was determined that the micelle formation process of the three hybrid systems is driven by enthalpy, and a mixed diffusion-kinetics adsorption mechanism is involved in the adsorption process. These findings significantly impact their application properties. This report stands as the first exploration of the synergistic mechanisms and application performance of two types of green surfactants in aqueous solutions, considering the influence of different numbers of EO group chains. Not only does it provide fundamental insights into their properties, but it also offers novel perspectives on the applications of green surface activation.

Abstract
Surfactant reduces the surface tension of liquids, resulting in improved emulsion stability, and there is great interest in pesticide additives. Ethoxylate is often used as a pesticide emulsifier. However, the degree of ethoxylation and the existence of dioxane byproducts can significantly affect the performance of emulsifiers. Here, a series of polyoxyethylene tallow amines with the addition of different numbers of ethylene oxide (EO) were synthesized and characterized. Their physical and chemical performances were measured. The ability of POEA as a surfactant to reduce water surface tension and the surface adsorption of molecules were assessed based on the static and dynamic surface tensions. The results show that the surfactant molecules preferentially form a saturated adsorption layer in solution, and the mixed-diffusion-kinetics mechanism dominates the adsorption process. With the increase of the EO addition number, the emulsifying property of POEA increases, while the wetting property gradually decreases and the contact angle increases. These results can provide a basis for the selection of pesticide additives. At the same time, the mechanism of removing dioxane by ethoxylate is described, and a simple and low-consumption method is put forward to reduce the dioxane content. It provides a new idea for the removal of dioxane.

Abstract
Due to the inherent defects of the long alkyl chain in the related hydrophilicity and water solubility, alkyl α-D-xylosides (7) had hardly the practical application as sugar-based surfactants and should be reconstructed to obtain alkyl dioxyethyl α-D-xylosides (5) with dioxyethylene fragment (-(OCH2CH2)2-)) as the hydrophilic spacer to increase the related TPSA value. With D-xylose as the raw material, 1,2-cis alkyl dioxyethyl α-D-xylosides (5a-5f, n = 6-12) were stereoselectively synthesized. Their physicochemical properties including water solubility, surface tension, foamability, emulsification, thermotropic liquid crystal, and hygroscopicity had been investigated. Their water solubility was found to decrease gradually whereas their calculated HLB numbers were 14.72 → 11.67 (n = 6 → 12) with increasing alkyl chain length (n). Dodecyl dioxyethyl α-D-xyloside (5f) had not water solubility because the HLB number was low. Furthermore, their CMC values decreased with increasing the alkyl chain length, and the CMC value of decyl dioxyethyl α-D-xyloside (5e) was as low as 9.21 × 10-5 mol·L-1. Octyl dioxyethyl α-D-xyloside (5c) had the lowest surface tension (27.25 mN·m-1) at the CMC. Both of nonyl and decyl dioxyethyl α-D-xylosides (5d & 5e) possessed good foaming power and foam stability. Decyl dioxyethyl α-D-xyloside (5e) had the strongest emulsifying property either in the toluene/water system or in the octane/water system. Nonyl dioxyethyl α-D-xylosides (5d) had the most stylish SA texture. Hexyl dioxyethyl α-D-xyloside (5a) possessed the strongest hygroscopicity. Therefore, the alkyl dioxyethyl α-D-xylosides as a class of novel sugar-based surfactants will be widely considered as promising candidates for various practical applications.

Abstract
Alkyl di-/tri-/tetraoxyethyl β-d-xylopyranosides as derivatives of alkyl xylosides are a class of non-ionic sugar-based surfactants. They were stereoselectively synthesized by the Helferich method. Their properties including hydrophilic-lipophilic balance number, water solubility, surface property, foam property, emulsifying property, and thermotropic liquid crystal property were mainly investigated. The results showed that their water solubility decreased with increasing the alkyl chain length and increasing the number of the oligooxyethyl fragment. The critical micelle concentration had a monotonous decreasing trend with increasing the alkyl chain length. Nonyl di-/tri-/tetraoxyethyl β-d-xylopyranosides [-(OCH2CH2)m-, where m = 2, 3, and 4] exhibited the most excellent foaming ability and foam stability. In the n-octane/water system, dodecyl tetraoxyethyl β-d-xylopyranosides and tetradecyl tetraoxyethyl β-d-xylopyranosides had the strongest emulsion ability. In addition, some alkyl di-/tri-/tetraoxyethyl β-d-xylopyranosides had thermotropic liquid crystal properties. Such sugar-based surfactants, alkyl di-/tri-/tetraoxyethyl β-d-xylopyranosides, will be expected to develop for a variety of practical application.
