Abstract

The volumetric properties of the mixed surfactants bis(2-ethylhexyl) sodium sulfosuccinate and ethoxylated-2,5,8,11-tetramethyl-6-dodecyne-5,8-diol (Dynol-604) at various compositions in isooctane have been studied by density measurements at 303.15 K. The apparent specific volumes and the critical reverse micelle concentrations of the binary mixed surfactants were determined. The results were used to calculate the compositions, excess properties of mixing, activity coefficients and the interaction parameter between the two surfactants in the mixed micelles, based on Rubingh’s formalism.
