Structure of mixed anionic/nonionic surfactant micelles: experimental observations relating to the role of headgroup electrostatic and steric effects and the effects of added electrolyte.

The structures of the mixed anionic/nonionic surfactant micelles of SDS/C12E6 and SDS/C12E8 have been measured by small angle neutron scattering (SANS). The variations in the micelle aggregation number and surface charge with composition, measured in D2O and in dilute electrolyte, 0.01 and 0.05 M Na...
