Theory of copolymer micellization [PDF]
The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2003 We consider the micellization of block copolymers in solution, employing self-consistent field theory with an additional constraint that permits the examination of intermediate structures. From the information for an isolated micelle (structure, binding energy, free energy) we describe how the global thermodynamics of these systems can be obtained ...

Induced Crystallization of Polyelectrolyte-Surfactant Complexes at the Gas-Water Interface
, 2004 Synchrotron-X-ray and surface tension studies of a strong polyelectrolyte (PE) in the semi-dilute regime (~ 0.1M monomer-charges) with varying surfactant concentrations show that minute surfactant concentrations induce the formation of a PE-surfactant ...

Ordered Phases of Diblock Copolymer Micelles in Selective Solvent [PDF]
arXiv, 2005 We propose a mean-field model to explore the equilibrium coupling between micelle aggregation and lattice choice in neutral copolymer and selective solvent mixtures. We find both thermotropic and lyotropic transitions from face-centered cubic to body-centered cubic ordered phases of spherical micelles, in agreement with experimental observations of ...

Results in ChemistryThe interaction behavior of mixed surfactant-dye systems, i.e., anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), cationic surfactant cetyl pyridinium chloride (CPC), and dye methyl orange (MO) was investigated through the allocation of micelles using ...

Micellization of Diblock Copolymer Modified by Cononsolvency Effect [PDF]
arXivSpherical micelle modified by cononsolvency effect is investigated by using self-consistent field theory (SCFT) and random phase approximation, which is formed by diblock copolymers consisted of one permanent hydrophobic block and one hydrophilic block.

Premicellar aggregation of amphiphilic molecules: Aggregate lifetime and polydispersity
, 2009 A recently introduced thermodynamic model of amphiphilic molecules in solution has yielded, under certain realistic conditions, a significant presence of metastable aggregates well below the critical micelle concentration -- a phenomenon that has been ...

Micelle Formation of Diblock Copolymers Driven by Cononsolvency Effect [PDF]
arXivThis study utilizes self-consistent field theory to characterize various features of cononsolvency-driven spherical micelles formed by double hydrophilic block copolymers (DHBCs). Micelles are observed only at an intermediate cosolvent fraction, forming abruptly at a specific solvent/cosolvent mixing ratio and gradually disappearing with further ...
