摘要

Addition of the hydrotropic salt sodium tosylate (TSNa) to solutions of a polymerizable cationic surfactant, methacryloyloxyundecyltrimethylammonium bromide (MUTB), leads to a transition from spherical to wormlike micelles about 40 nm in length. The wormlike micelles were successfully polymerized to yield stable, single-phase solutions of polymerized micelles. The polymerized wormlike micelles were several hundred nanometers long, ...
