Micellar Systems Studied by Positron Annihilation Techniques

The positron annihilation technique was applied to the study of the micelle formation process in aqueous and reversed micellar systems and to the determination of the site at which solubilizates become incorporated into the micelle. Furthermore, the effect of additives on the surfactant concentration at which a cooperative effect of reverse micellar solutions becomes observable was investigated and the location of the additives in aqueous micelles determined.
