Abstract

Dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide — Dodecyltrimethyl-ammonium hydroxide — water mixtures were studied with ion-selective electrodes, and the aggregation behavior, degree of ionization of the micelles and the distribution constants of bromide and hydroxide ions between water and micelles were found, showing that some suppositions about the interpretation of micellar catalysis are incorrect, and these interpretations must be revised. The results support the mass action model for the theoretical treatment of micellar catalysis.
