How to determine the rate of formation of micelle?
« on: November 26, 2009, 12:35:06 AM »
Hi all,

I am working with a surfactant. Above a "critical micelle concentration", surfactant molecules aggregates together to form a micelle. A good example of this is sodium dodecyl sulphate. Anyway, I have a surfactant and I want to measure the rate constant of formation of this micelle. Can someone recommend a type of experiment that can be done to measure this? Basically I want to find out how fast is the micelle form. Thank's.
