Micelle Formation and the Hydrophobic Effect [PDF]
, 2004 The tendency of amphiphilic molecules to form micelles in aqueous solution is a consequence of the hydrophobic effect. The fundamental difference between micelle assembly and macroscopic phase separation is the stoichiometric constraint that frustrates ...

Effective critical micellar concentration of a zwitterionic detergent: A fluorimetric study on n-dodecyl phosphocholine [PDF]
, 2010 We have investigated the effect of ionic strength on the aggregation behavior of n-dodecyl phosphocholine. On the basis of the classical Corrin-Harkins relation, the critical micellar concentration of this detergent decreases with a biphasic trend on ...

Kinetics of Surfactant Micellization: a Free Energy Approach
, 2010 We present a new theoretical approach to the kinetics of micelle formation in surfactant solutions, in which the various stages of aggregation are treated as constrained paths on a single free-energy landscape.
