Formation of mixed micelles in an aqueous mixture of a biamphiphilic surface active ionic liquid and an anionic surfactant: Experimental and theoretical study

The micellization behaviour of biamphiphilic surface active ionic liquid (BAIL), 3-methyl-1-pentylimidazolium dodecylsulfate [C5mim][C12SO4] with anionic surfactant, sodium dioctylsulfosuccinate (AOT) was investigated using different techniques in an aqueous solution. The values of critical micelle concentration (cmc) and thermodynamic parameters have been ascertained by employing conductometric measurement at (298.15, 308.15 and 318.15) K. The...
