Abstract
The temperature dependence of micellar solubilization was determined in the 180°–140°F. temperature range by using a dye solubilization technique with built and unbuilt solutions of three high-eloud point, commereial surfactants, one anionic of the alkylaryl sulphonate type and two types of nonionic agents. It was found that the logarithm of solubilization in both built and unbuilt solutions was directly proportional to temperature (solubilization was an exponential function of temperature) and that the log solubilization-temperature slopes of the built and unbuilt solutions of each surfactant were approximately parallel.
