Theoretical and Applied Aspects
By Yoshikiyo Moroi
This text cautions against the too ready acceptance of the phase separation model of micelle formation which neglects to take into account the interfacial tension that exists between two macroscopic phases. Alternatively, the author advances his own mass action model which stresses the dissolution and aggregation of amphiphiles.
