Recent Advances in the Theory and Simulation of Model Colloidal Microphase Formers

open access: yes, 2016
This mini-review synthesizes our understanding of the equilibrium behavior of particle models with short-range attractive and long-range repulsive (SALR) interactions. These models, which can form stable periodic microphases, aim to reproduce the essence

Effect of Macrocycle Size on the Self-Assembly of Methylimidazolium Surfactant with Sulfonatocalix[n]arenes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The effect of macrocycle size on the association of supramolecular amphiphiles composed of 4-sulfonatocalix[n]arene and 1-methyl-3-tetradecylimidazolium (C14mim+) was studied in aqueous solutions at pH 7.

Bio‐Based Amphiphilic Farnesyl Glycidyl Ether Block Copolymers: Aqueous Self‐Assembly and Solubilization Boosting

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, Volume 31, Issue 72, December 23, 2025.
Bio‐derived amphiphilic poly(ethylene glycol)‐b‐poly(terpenyl glycidyl ether) diblock copolymers (mPEG114‐b‐PTGEm) were synthesized via AROP from farnesyl glycidyl ether (FarGE) and its hexahydrogenated derivative (HHFarGE). Block copolymer amphiphilicity is easily tunable via the TGE block size m and systematically affects the critical micelle ...

Comparing open and closed molecular self-assembly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We study theoretically in the present work the self-assembly of molecules in an open system, which is fed by monomers and depleted in partial or complete clusters. Such a scenario is likely to occur for example in the context of viral self-assembly.

Recent Advances in the Utilization of Imidazolium‐Based Ionic Liquids for Chemical‐Enhanced Oil Recovery: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesThe Chemical Record, Volume 25, Issue 12, December 2025.
This review highlights the recent advancements in imidazolium‐based ionic liquids for enhanced oil recovery (EOR), focusing on their ability to reduce interfacial tension, alter wettability, and stabilize emulsions. Their tunable chemistry, thermal stability, and recyclability position them as effective and sustainable alternatives to conventional EOR ...

Determination of Critical Micelle Concentration and Thermodynamic Evaluations of Micellization of GMS

open access: yesModern Chemistry & Applications, 2018
The uncontrolled distribution of surfactants which are commonly used as household and industrial products like soaps, lubricants and detergents in the global market have provoked this study. The determination of critical micelle concentration (CMC) of glycerol monostearate surfactant (GMS) was evaluated using Conductivity and UV-Visible Spectroscopic ...

Micellization in a Mixed Alkali Soap System [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The solubility of sodium octanoate and sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) in the micelle was investigated by measuring the surface tension of the aqueous solution of surfactant mixture as a function of mole fraction of surfactants. Results indicate that the
