Kinetics of Solubilization of n-Decane and Benzene by Micellar Solutions of Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate

“…To interpret the obtained experimental data (Figs. [2][3][4][5], in the next section we propose a theoretical model.…”

“…Two major mechanisms of solubilization of oil by surfactant micelles are distinguished in the literature: (A) Surface reaction: the solubilization is effectuated through a transient adsorption of surfactant micelles at the water-oil interface (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7). (B) Bulk reaction: the surfactant micelles can capture oil molecules dissolved in the aqueous phase (3,4,8,(9)(10)(11).…”

Mechanisms of photoresist dissolution

“…Unlike benzoic acid, this resin is practically insoluble unless acid-base reaction ionizes the phenolic segments at the surface. The solubilization of fatty acids in aqueous detergent Ž solutions is one close parallel Chan et al, 1976;Kabin et al, . 1996 .…”

Interfacial Resistance in Solubilization Kinetics

“…It takes place in detergency where there is no surfactant transfer across the interface (1,2) and where there is such a transfer (3) and in systems where a simple solute is being transferred across an interface covered by a surfactant (4). There are of course many examples where convective-diffusive transfer is controlling (5,6) and many more where it competes with interfacial resistance (7,8), and only a few references are cited. As shown in Fig.…”
