Abstract
The dependence of the work of the molecular aggregate formation on the aggregation number and surfactant monomer concentration in solution that has the key role for the theory of micellization was studied on the basis of a simple realistic droplet model of spherical aggregate composed of surfactant molecules (the o/w micelle type). Analytical formulas were derived for the coordinates of maximum and minimum of aggregate formation work on the aggregation number axis arising with an increase in the concentration of micellar solution. Model calculations of the thermodynamic characteristics of the kinetics of micellization were performed for premicellar and micellar regions of aggregate sizes within a wide range of solution concentration including the critical micellization concentration.
