Dye solubility and stopped-flow kinetic studies were conducted in sodium dodecylsulfate/dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide and sodium dodecylsulfate/decyltrimethylammonium bromide micellar solutions with excess anionic surfactant. The enhanced rate in the presence of anionic micelles of the Ni2+(aq)/pyridine-2-azo-p-dimethylaniline (PADA) complexation reaction was used as a probe of the mixed micellar situation. PADA solubilities and the kinetic parameters derived through the Robinson model for micellar catalysis were consistent with a complete incorporation of the cationic surfactant into the sodium dodecylsulfate micelles.

The micellar property of mixed surfactant systems, cationic (dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide, DTAB) and anionic (sodium dodecylsulfate, SDS) surfactants with variable molar ratios in aqueous system has been reported by using surface tension and conductivity measurements at T = 293.15, 298.15 and 303.15 K. DTAB concentrations are varied from 1.0 × 10 −4 to 3 × 10 −4 mol l −1 in 1.0 × 10 −2 mol l −1 SDS solution while the SDS concentration is varied from 1.0 × 10 −3 to 1.5 × 10 −2 mol l −1 in approximately 5.0 × 10 −3 mol l −1 DTAB, so that such concentrations of DTAB-SDS (DTAB-rich) and SDS-DTAB (SDS-rich) solutions were chosen 3 : 1 ratio. The critical micellar concentration, as well as surface and thermodynamic properties for DTAB-rich and SDS-rich solutions, were evaluated by the surface tension ( γ ) and conductivity ( κ ) methods. The pseudo phase separation model was coupled with the dissociated Margules model for synergism. The Krafft temperature behaviour and optical analysis of mixed surfactants are studied using conductivity and UV–Vis spectroscopy, respectively. The dispersibility and stability of DTAB-rich and SDS-rich solutions with and without dyes (2.5 × 10 −5 mol l −1 of methyl orange and methylene blue) are carried out by using UV–Vis spectroscopy and dynamic light scattering.
