Abstract

SANS from non-ionic micellar solutions of Triton X-100 over a wide range of concentration and temperature are reported. It has been found that the micelles are oblate ellipsoids with an axial ratio around two and that there are about 20 molecules of D 2O per surfactant molecule in the hydrophilic region. The data have been analysed in terms of the Sticky Hard Sphere model and the effect of temperature on inter-micellar interactions has been investigated.
