Finite-size effects and optimal system sizes in simulations of surfactant micelle self-assembly
Jonathan J. Harris, George A. Pantelopulos, John E. Straub
The spontaneous formation of micelles in aqueous solutions is governed by the amphipathic nature of surfactants and is practically interesting due to the regular use of micelles as…

Aerosol-OT surfactant forms stable reverse micelles in aploar solvent in the absence of water
Ryo Urano, George A. Pantelopulos, John E. Straub
Normal micelle aggregates of amphiphilic surfactant in aqueous solvent are formed by a process of entropically driven self-assembly. The self-assembly of reverse micelles from amph…
