We explore the use of coarse-grained dissipative particle dynamics simulations to predict
critical micelle concentrations (CMCs) in polydisperse surfactant mixtures and blends. By …

The effect of the head group structure of surfactant on the adsorption of methyl red (MR) onto
modified coffee residues (MCR s) has been investigated. The coffee residue (CR) was …

Hypotheses The aggregation number and length of spherocylindrical (rodlike, wormlike)
micelles in solutions of an ionic surfactant and salt can be predicted knowing the molecular …

Monte Carlo simulations in the grand canonical ensemble were used to obtain critical
parameters and conditions leading to microphase separation for uncharged block …
