In this review, we report recent developments on the shear-induced transitions and instabilities found in surfactant wormlike micelles. The survey focuses on the nonlinear …
Cationic surfactants having long (C22) mono-unsaturated tails were studied in aqueous solutions containing salt using steady and dynamic rheology. The surfactant erucyl bis …

The rheology, flow birefringence, and small-angle neutron scattering of mixed cationic/anionic wormlike micellar solutions composed of cetyl trimethylammonium tosylate …
Dynamics of Surfactant Self-Assemblies explains the dynamics of micellar equilibria, tracking surfactant exchange, and micelle formation/breakdown processes. Highlighting the …

Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) and rheology are used to probe the wormlike micelles formed in mixtures of a cationic (cetyl trimethylammonium tosylate, CTAT) and an …
The addition of low concentrations of the hydrotropic salt p-toluidine hydrochloride (PTHC) to solutions of the anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) promotes the transition …
Interaction between polymer and surfactant bearing opposite charges is much more complex from a physicochemical point of view as compared to interaction between ionic …
Wormlike micelles are elongated and semi-flexible aggregates resulting from the self- assembly of surfactant molecules in aqueous solutions. In the general context of complex …
