Self assembly of model surfactants as reverse micelles in nonpolar solvents and their role as interfacial tension modifiers

The self assembly of linear surfactants into reverse micelles (RMs) in nonpolar solvents and their efficiency in reducing the interfacial tension is studied using dissipative particle dynamics simulations. Given the importance of RMs as thickeners, among many other applications, their properties are...
