Abstract

The effect of octadecanol on Langmuir films of potassium docosanoate has been studied. The mixture was chosen in order to modelize the amphiphile interaction in the well known nematic potassium dodecanoate-decanol-water solution. The film study discloses an association between one molecule of the alcohol and one molecule of the soap. The results have been compared with results from the literature. The consequences on the amphiphile packing at the micellar interface are discussed.
