Three eras of micellization.
Micellization is the precipitation of lipids from aqueous solution into aggregates with a broad distribution of aggregation number. Three eras of micellization are characterized in a simple kinetic model of Becker-Döring type. The model assigns the same constant energy to the (k-1) monomer-monomer bonds in a linear chain of k particles. The number of monomers decreases sharply and many clusters...
متن کاملAsymptotic Analysis of Coagulation–Fragmentation Equations of Carbon Nanotube Clusters
The possibility of the existence of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) in organic solvents in the form of clusters is discussed. A theory is developed based on a bundlet model for clusters describing the distribution function of clusters by size. The phenomena have a unified explanation in the framework of the bundlet model of a cluster, in accordance with which the free energy of an SWNT inv...
متن کاملConductometric Study of the Thermodynamics of Micellization of Sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) in the Presence of Some Aromatic Ammonium Salts
The effect of three organic aromatic salts - Phenyltrimethylammonium (PhTMAB), benzyltrimethylammonium (BzTMAB) and benzyltrimethylammonium (BzTEAB) bromides - on the micellization of sodium dodecylsulfate has been investigated by conductometric method. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) values were found to decrease with increase in the concentration of the aromatic ammonium salts. Therm...
متن کاملLocal and global strong solutions to continuous coagulation-fragmentation equations with diffusion
We consider the diffusive continuous coagulation-fragmentation equations with and without scattering and show that they admit unique strong solutions for a large class of initial values. If the latter values are small with respect to a suitable norm, we provide sufficient conditions for global-in-time existence in the absence of fragmentation.
متن کاملGlobal strict solutions to continuous coagulation-fragmentation equations with strong fragmentation
In this paper we give an elementary proof of the unique, global-in-time solvability of the coagulation-(multiple) fragmentation equation with polynomially bounded fragmentation and particle production rates and a bounded coagulation rate. The proof relies on a new result concerning domain invariance for the fragmentation semigroup which is based on a simple monotonicity argument.
