Thermodynamic Properties of Micellar Systems

  • Chapter
Surfactants in Solution

Abstract

Thermodynamic properties of micellar systems can now be measured with reasonably good precision over a large concentration range, and the data can be interpreted through mathematical models or by comparison with simple reference systems. A review is given of some of the recent studies that have been made in our laboratory on surfactants in water, on the influence of alcohols and electrolytes on micellar systems, on microemulsions and on emulsions.
