CARBON DIOXIDE TECHNOLOGY PLATFORM 125 PEO segment and characterized by small angle X-ray scattering in CO2 (17). The perfluoroalkane chain was reported to have a number average molecular weight of 384 g/mol, whereas the PEO segment was reported to be 340 g/mol. The poly(tetrafluoroethylene)-block-PEO sample contained a range of molecular weights, and the corresponding scattering curve showed two distinct regions. The model proposed by the authors involved small premicellar surfactant aggregates consisting of fewer than 10 surfactant molecules and a second group of larger surfactant molecules containing 6 to 8 PEO units (17). The large aggregates could be classified as conventional reverse micelles. 2.2.3 Perfluoropolyether Chelating Agents KrytoxTM Fluorosurfactants, also known as perfluoropolyether (PFPE) carboxylic acids, have been converted to chelating agents and subsequently evaluated for solubility in CO2 (22). The chelat- ing agents were designed to possess a head group of either bis(picolyl amine) or dithiol and a tail of PFPE. The phase behavior of the chelating agents was shown to vary with molecular weight of the PFPE-tail component. As the molecular weight of the PFPE-tail increased, the total molecular weight of the compound increased, thereby decreasing its solubility in CO2. On the other hand, increasing the ratio of the PFPE-tail segment to the polar head group segment enhanced the solubility of the chelating agent. 2.3 CO2-Philic/Lipophilic Surfactants A semifluorinated diblock F(CF2)10(CH2)10H has been characterized by small angle X-ray scattering using 5–6 wt% surfactant concentrations in CO2 at 65◦C (17). The scattering data provided radius of gyration measurements that were compared to theoretical calculations for the individual molecules. For the conditions of this experiment, a model was developed that depicted no more than three to four unimers (individual copolymer chains) per aggregate for the diblock. Utilizing small-angle neutron scattering measurements in CO2 at 65◦C, a di- block of polystyrene and poly(FOA), polystyrene-block-PFOA, provided quite different results (16). Relying on calibrated small-angle neutron scattering curves, a model was developed that depicted the block copolymers as a spherical core-shell structure. By systematically increasing the PFOA block length, the radius of the total particle increased with a simultaneous decrease in the swelling of the corona. The solvent strength of CO2 is easily tuned so that by increasing the density of CO2 the aggregation number was observed to decrease, creating more dynamic micelles. It was proposed that a critical micelle density exists analogous to a critical micelle concentration to describe the phenomenon of unimer-to-aggregate transitions for amphiphilic materials in CO2. 2.4 Reversible Self-Assembly The phenomena of a critical micelle concentration suggested by previous scatter- ing measurements of block copolymers (16) was confirmed in a study of polyvinyl
