Shear-induced micellar structures in ternary surfactant mixtures: the influence of the structure of the micellar interface
Article Abstract:
Research was conducted to examine the influence of the structure of surfactant headgroups on the ability of micelles to form shear-induced structures (SIS). The experiments showed the dependence of SIS formation on the structure of the micellar interface. By increasing the concentration based on the anomalous effect in transient electric birefringence, the intensity of interaction constant was maintained. Results on ternary surfactant mixtures provide convincing evidence for the coagulation process.

Osmotic pressure and interparticle interactions in ionic micellar surfactant solutions
Article Abstract:
A study was conducted to analyze the osmotic pressure of concentrated aqueous micellar surfactant solutions. Distilled, deionized water was utilized to prepare the aqueous solutions. The solvent and surfactant solutions were then added to their compartments using syringes. Experimental results indicated osmotic pressures for concentrated ionic surfactant systems up to 18 volume percent. Findings also showed that micelle-micelle interactions supported large osmotic pressures.

Electron transfer in reverse micellar solutions: influence of the interfacial bound water
Article Abstract:
The influence of interfacial charges of reverse micelles and water pool size (w) on the thermal decay of the photocation of tetramethylbenzidine with aqueous nucleophiles was investigated. The decay rate constants (k) were found to be slightly affected by the sign of the interfacial charges. The correlation between the dependence of k and the surfactant molecule density on the water pool size for all micellar solutions was found in the range 5
