Size and shape of micelles studied by means of SANS, PCS, and FCS.

The hexaethylene glycol monododecyl ether (C(12)E(6)) micelles at concentrations up to 10% have been studied in their isotropic phase (10-48 degrees C) by means of small angle neutron scattering (SANS) and photon correlation spectroscopy (PCS). The SANS data obtained at low temperatures could be unequivocally interpreted as a result of scattering from a suspension of compact globular micelles with the shape of a triaxial ellipsoid or a short end-capped elliptical rod. Different models have been applied to analyze the SANS data obtained at higher temperatures: (i) elongated rod-like micelles with purely sterical interactions, (ii) compact globular micelles with a weak attractive potential, and (iii) globular micelles influenced by the critical phenomena in the whole temperature range studied. The good quality of the experimental data indicated model (i) as the best fit for our data. The diffusion coefficients obtained from the PCS measurements have been compared to the diffusion coefficients calculated for the rod-like micelles--results of the SANS data analysis. A good agreement was achieved using the solvent viscosity, in agreement with the theoretical predictions for sterically interacting globular colloidal particles. Finally, the SANS results obtained at 24 degrees C were compared to the micelle self-diffusion coefficients previously measured by means of fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) at this temperature. The good agreement obtained after scaling the data with solution viscosity supports the validity of the generalized Stokes-Einstein relation in sterically interacting systems: the product of the colloidal particle self-diffusion coefficient and the macroscopic viscosity remains constant in a broad range of concentrations. It has been concluded that the FCS technique in combination with simple viscosity measurements might serve as a tool for estimating the micellar size and shape.
