Dependence of the critical micelle concentration (CMC) on temperature is examined from a statistical-mechanical point of view. A simple and primitive model examined in this article yieldslnCMC=A+BT+C/T+DlnTwithT being temperature andA, B, C, D being constants depending on the properties of the surfactant molecules which comprise the micelles. The resulting equation combines Muller's and Lim's equations, which have already been proven to fit well measured CMC data with temperature. The statistical-mechanical model on micellization discussed in this article provides a theoretical basis on these equations. |
