Dynamics of Organized Assemblies in Solution

  • Chapter
Surfactants in Solution

Abstract

A quantitative treatment of the dynamics of micelles in aqueous solutions was given in 1974 by Aniansson and Wall. The validity of this treatment has been checked in a large number of studies from which a wealth of information concerning the dynamics of micellar systems has been obtained. After briefly recalling the main features of the theory of Aniansson and Wall, this paper reviews (i) the results concerning the kinetics of the exchange of the surfactant between micelles and the bulk, and of the micelle formation- breakdown in aqueous solution; (ii) the kinetics of similar processes in mixed alcohol + surfactant micellar solutions, and microemulsions; (iii) the kinetics of the exchange of solubilizates between micelles (and other organized assemblies) and the bulk; and (iv) the available evidence for the exchange of compounds between microemulsion droplets occurring through micelle collisions or partial micellar breakdown and the results concerning their kinetics.

  95. This value however refers only to the fraction of fragmentation reactions in which one pyrene molecule is taken along by a micelle fragment. The true rate constant of fragmentation will be obtained by dividing the experimental Value of this rate constant by the probability of having a pyrene molecule in the fragment, that is the product of the average number of pyrene per micelle by the ratio of the volume of a fragment over the micelle volume. This ratio is unfortunately not known but a value of 10 appears reasonable.1 This would result in a rate constant of fragmentation of 2x10 s for the example discussed. This rate constant is quite large and emphasizes the extreme lability of the mixed alcohol+surfactant micelles in concentrated solutions.
