The
critical micelle concentration (CMC) of SDS in different electrolyte concentration was determined with a surfactant ion selective electrode (type 6.0507.120 Metrohm) that is sensitive to ionic surfactants [23, 24].
To determine
critical micelle concentration (CMC), the surface tension was measured as a function of surfactant concentration.

critical micelle concentration A number of studies cited above (1), (3-9), (13-15), (17), (19), (20), (22-25), (27-31) addressed the effect of surfactants on the behavior of HEUR, HASE, and HMHEC associative thickeners.
(5) The preferred polymers interact with the surfactant and effectively shift the
critical micelle concentration (CMC) to higher concentrations, while lowering the critical aggregation concentration; the latter being the concentration at which the surfactant selectively interacts with the polymer rather than adsorbing at the liquid surface (Figure 1).
It is also important to state that in the available data molecular diffusion coefficient,
critical micelle concentration (CMC) and capillary number are not available (Nc), but they are needed in simulation with CMC, So one of the purposes of this simulation is to find these unknown but important parameters.
For non-ionic surfactants, the
critical micelle concentration (CMC) is usually low (between 0.01 mol/[m.sup.3] and 0.1 mol/[m.sup.3]).
The
critical micelle concentration (CMC) is the concentration of the HA solution at which the surface tension is the minimized (Lowe, 1999).
carried out an investigation for the determination of the
critical micelle concentration (CMC) of long-chain imidazolium based ILs and with the respective chain length of alkyltriammonium salts in water and 20 mM phosphate buffer.
This results in a significantly lower
critical micelle concentration (CMC) and a far higher surface activity (factor up to 100x/1000x), making them quite efficient.
For surface chemistry, dynamic contact angle, surface tension and
critical micelle concentration systems are highlighted.
A fluorescence probe, N-phenylnaphlylamine, was used to estimate the
critical micelle concentration (CMC) and the polarity of the hydrocarbon core of the micelle.
