Mixtures of Latex Particles and Micelles

In 1980, Yoshimura et al. [24] reported a fluid-solid phase separation in a mixture of polystyrene latex (cri = 510nm) and the non-ionic surfactant polyoxyethylene alkyl phenylether at KCl concentrations above 0.05 mole/1. At a surfactant 

Piazza et al. [27] have also shown that the micelle depletion-induced fluid-solid phase transition can be profitably exploited to perform an efficient size fractionation of latex particles.

In principle, the scattering intensity of a binary mixture of latex particles and micelles consists of three terms, i.e., there is a cross term in addition to the scattering intensities of the single components [1,5]. The theoretical considerations propounded in Sect 2, on the other hand, assumed mainly systems consisting of...
