Abstract Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) experiments on sheared aqueous surfactant solutions of tetradecyltrimethylammoniumsalicylate (TTMA-Sal) are reported. A5-mM-solution without shear shows a weak correlation peak at a momentum transfer of 0.09 nm−1 which has its origin in the micellar interaction. For shear rates above a threshold value of Γ=40 s−1 the scattering pattern shows an irregular increase in anisotropy. The analysis of the anisotropic pattern reveals the existence of two types of micelles: Small rodlike micelles which are weakly aligned and very large rodlike aggregates which are strongly aligned and which are present above the threshold value ofΓ. The two micelles are in equilibrium with each other and the equilibrium shifts with increasing shear rate to the side of the large oriented micelles.
