For pure nonionic EO adducts, increase in the number of oxyethylene groups in the molecule results in a decrease in the tendency to form micelles and an increase in the surface tension of the solution at the critical micelle concentration (1 ) (l. ) This change in surface activity is due to the greater surface area of the molecules in the adsorption layer and at the micellar surface as a result of the presence there of the highly hydrated polyoxyethylene chain. The reduction in the tendency to form micelles is due to the increase in the free energy of micelle formation as a result of partial dehydration of the polyoxyethylene chain during incorporation into the micelle ( 1 6) (17). 

On the other hand, micelle formation has sometimes been considered to be a phase separation of the surfactant-rich phase from the dilute aqueous solution of surfactant. The micellar phase and the monomer in solution are regarded to be in phase equilibrium and cmc can be considered to be the solubility of the surfactant. When the activity coefficient of the monomer is assumed to be unity, the free energy of micelle formation, Ag, is calculated by an equation... 

Application of Activity at cmc. The above consideration suggested us to propose a new treatment for ionic micelle formation. According to thermodynamics, the micelle-monomer equilibrium is achieved when the chemical potential of surfactant in the micelle is equal to that in the bulk solution. The free energy of micelle formation can be represented by the use of the critical micelle activity, cma, which is the activity of surfactant at the cmc, as... 

FORMATION. Aqueous solutions of highly surface-active substances spontaneously tend to reduce interfacial energy of solute-solvent interactions by forming micelles. The critical micelle concentration (or, c.m.c.) is the threshold surfactant concentration, above which micelle formation (also known as micellization) is highly favorable. For sodium dodecyl sulfate, the c.m.c. is 5.6 mM at 0.01 M NaCl or about 3.1 mM at 0.03 M NaCl. The lower c.m.c. observed at higher salt concentration results from a reduction in repulsive forces among the ionic head groups on the surface of micelles made up of ionic surfactants. As would be expected for any entropy-driven process, micelle formation is less favorable as the temperature is lowered. 

Similar relationships can be derived for the Gibbs free energy changes (AG = AGsoin) of solution formation. Starting from (6.22c), we obtain in a similar manner...
