Structural Study on Manganese and Potassium Myristate and Stearate by X-ray Diffraction (XRD)

  • Abstract:
  • X-ray Diffraction (XRD) used to determine the layered structure and crystallinity of fatty acid, manganese and potassium myristate and stearate soap. The important frequencies of absorption Maxima in X-ray Diffraction (XRD) of fatty acids and manganese and potassium myristate and stearate soap weere recorded and compare the result of corresponding myristic and steric acid and potassium soaps. X-ray diffraction (XRD) of metallic soaps of potassium and manganese revealed highly crystalline layered structures with ionic metal-to-oxygen bonds. Analysis shows a "double layer" structure, where metal ions lie between parallel planes of fatty acid chains. Long spacing peaks indicate the spacing between these planes, which are observed in metallic soaps.
