A novel, simple, low-cost, and user-friendly potentiometric surfactant sensor based on the new 1,3-dihexadecyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-3-ium-tetraphenylborate (DHBI-TPB) ion-pair for the detection of cationic surfactants in personal care products and disinfectants is presented here. The new cationic surfactant DHBI-Br was successfully synthesized and characterized by NMR (NMR), Fourier transform IR (FTIR) spectrometry, liquid chromatog.-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and elemental anal. and was further employed for DHBI-TPB ion-pair preparation The sensor gave excellent response characteristics for CTAB, CPC and Hyamine with a Nernstian slope (57.1 to 59.1 mV/decade), whereas the lowest limit of detection (LOD) value was measured for CTAB (0.3 x 10-6 M). The sensor exhibited a fast dynamic response to dodecyl sulfate (DDS) and TPB. High sensor performances stayed intact regardless of the employment of inorganic and organic cations and in a broad pH range (2-11). Titration of cationic and ethoxylated (EO)-nonionic surfactant (NSs) (in Ba2+) mixtures with TPB revealed the first inflexion point for a cationic surfactant and the second for an EO-nonionic surfactant. The increased concentration of EO-nonionic surfactants and the number of EO groups had a neg. influence on titration curves and signal change. The sensor was successfully applied for the quantification of tech.-grade cationic surfactants and in 12 personal care products and disinfectants. The results showed good agreement with the measurements obtained by a com. surfactant sensor and by a two-phase titration A good recovery for the standard addition method (98-102%) was observed
