Abstract The densities, ρ, viscosities, η and specific conductivities κ, of (0.0002, 0.0004, 0.0006 and 0.0008 m) CTAB in 0.1 m aqueous valine, leucine and isoleucine were measured at different temperatures. The measured data were used to calculate various useful thermodynamic parameters. A complete characterization of any mixture can be performed by means of these thermodynamic properties. The apparent molar volume, ϕv, partial molar volume, $\phi _v^0$ and partial molar isobaric expansibilities, $\phi _E^0,$ were calculated using density data. The viscosity data were analyzed using Jones–Dole equation to obtain viscosity coefficients, A- and B-, free energy of activation per mole of solvent, Δμ1°∗, and solute, Δμ2°∗, enthalpy, ΔH∗ and entropy, ΔS∗ of activation of viscous flow. Measuring the changes in these properties has been found to be an excellent qualitative and quantitative way to obtain information regarding the molecular structure and intermolecular interactions occurring in these mixtures. Various structure-making/breaking ability of solute (cetyltrimethylammonium bromide) in presence of aqueous amino acid solutions were discussed. In addition, fluorescence study using pyrene as a photophysical probe has been carried out, the results of which support the conclusions obtained from other techniques.

The mixed micellization of aqueous binary mixtures of DTAB-rich and SDS-rich surfactants, comprising sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) is studied in aqueous solution by using the physicochemical properties (PCPs) at three different temperatures (T = 293.15, 298.15, and 303.15 K) and P=0.1  MPa. The DTAB concentration is varied from 0.0001 to 0.03 M/mol·L−1 in the ∼0.01 M/mol·L−1 SDS solution, while the concentration of SDS is varied from 0.001 to 0.015 M/mol·L−1 in the ∼0.005 M/mol·L−1 DTAB. The stable formulations have been obtained by employing the DTAB-rich and SDS-rich surfactants solutions in 3 : 1 ratio. Therefore, different phases and aggregated states formed in the ternary combinations of DTAB/SDS/H2O have been identified and described. The calculated PCPs have been utilized for determining the nature of the solute-solvent interaction (SLS0I). With increasing surfactants concentration, the polarisation of the solution also increases along with an increase in relative viscosity (ηr), viscous relaxation time (τ), and surface excess concentration (Γmax). However, the surface area of the molecule (Amin), hydrodynamic volume (Vh), and hydrodynamic radius (Rh) decrease along with an increase in surfactants concentration.
