Abstract

The directions of the studies of aqueous solutions containing two surfactants or surfactants and various additives performed by the authors and coworkers are discussed, with the focus being on systems in which mixing is accompanied by synergistic effects (a significant decrease in the critical micelle concentration, the growth of aggregates, an increase in the viscosity, changes in the topology of the solubility diagram, etc.). Experimental data and results of modeling with the use of molecular-thermodynamic approaches of various levels are presented.
