Abstract
The most important properties of Novel Cationic Surfactants is micelle formation i.e. to aggregate self-association in the solution to form micelles. These micelles are of three types – Normal micelle, Reverse micelle and mixed micelle. Their aggregation process depends upon the amphiphillic species and the condition in which they dissolved. The surfactant solution in which they dissolve shows a sudden change in their physical as well as chemical properties are called Critical micelle concentration i.e. (CMC) for the formation micelle. There are many factors which affects the critical micelle formation or concentration such as structure of surfactant, presence of various additives in the solution and effect of experimental conditions etc. Due to numerous applications of this system, there is lot of interest towards understanding of mixing behavior by using various techniques.
