Low Critical Micelle Concentration Discrepancy between Theory and Experiment
Experimental measurements for a variety of surfactants unexpectedly show that the critical micelle concentration (CMC) becomes constant with respect to increasing the size of the hydrophobic tail. This observation disagrees with theoretical models where it is expected to continue to decrease exponentially.

On the morphology and corrosion behavior of Ni nanostructures electrodeposited in the presence of different surfactants [PDF]
In this work, Ni nano structures with different surface morphology have been electrodeposited from the Waths bath using direct current (DC) and pulsed reverse current (PRC) techniques in the presence of three types of surfactants. CTAB, SDS, and Triton x-

Ultrasonic and Densitometric Characterization of Hyaluronan and its Interaction with Surfactant [PDF]
This disertation thesis is focused on the study of physico-chemical interactions of hyaluronan (with molecular weights from 10 to 1750 kDa) with cationic surfactants measured using uncommon technique named high resolution ultrasonic spectroscopy ...

Measurement of Critical Micelle Concentration (CMC)
The Critical Micelle Concentration (CMC) is the surfactant concentration above which the addition of a monomer leads to the formation of the first micelle. Above the CMC, monomers and micelles exist in dynamic equilibrium. Almost all physical properties of a surfactant solution exhibit a sharp concentration dependent discontinuity in the region of ...

Kinetics of non-ionic surfactant adsorption at a fluid-fluid interface from a micellar solution [PDF]
The kinetics of non-ionic surfactant adsorption at a fluid-fluid interface from a micellar solution is considered theoretically. Our model takes into account the effect of micelle relaxation on the diffusion of the free surfactant molecules.
